House Alterations & Additions in Fitzroy North Fitzroy North / Australia / 2014
The project is an extensive renovation and addition to a single storey Victorian house on a tight block in North Fitzroy. After living in the house for some years, the clients wanted a warm and relaxed family home and also wanted to accommodate grandparents who visit regularly
After demolishing the old additions at the rear of the building, a new volume was built to occupy the full width of the site. The new design contains living, dining, kitchen and a semi-independent bedroom area. This is a flexible space that can be occupied as two separate areas, or as a generously sized family home. A series of full height glazed doors open onto a private and secluded rear garden. The timber floor and roof are extended and make an ideal outdoor room where walls of old and new brickwork are left exposed
