RENOVATIONS & ADDITIONS
- Glen Iris Renovation
The client brief was challenging to deliver substantial additional floor area to an existing residence without significantly decreasing the rear open space. Added to this challenge was a range of site constraints - Glen Iris Renovation
that further increased the difficulty of meeting the design brief.
The design allowed for a new larger opening in the existing dining room, which now floods the new feature hallway with northern light. The solution was to propose a two-storey program located at the rear
of the existing house, exploit the width of the site and convert the old garage into a gazebo.
The incorporation of traditional architectural elements combines with current day living expectations in a seamless transition between existing and new. The newly landscaped pool and terrace area, once considered a major shortcoming of the property, has now been transformed into a real feature which is visible throughout the new family areas.
