The dynamic new addition redefines an existing dwelling achieving city and bay views. Separate living spaces and accommodation on each level offer flexibility for an adult family and include an upper-level lap pool/spa. Rich interiors bring a level of sophisticated glamour in the revamp of their home of 20 years.
Presenting a brave and dynamic façade to the street, a new dark 3 storey structure appears to engulf the original single level art-deco dwelling, raising its status and visibility within the streetscape and stepping up to meet with its neighbours on Beaconsfield Parade as an equal. The new building form maximises the use and aspect of the small site, achieving views to both the city to the north and the bay to the south. Designed to embrace and exploit its coastal setting, external and internal materials have been selected for their robustness and suitability for marine environments. The anodised solid aluminium rainscreen cladding is low maintenance, resistant to salt attack and fully recyclable at end of life.
The client and her family enjoy the flexibility of the spaces with opportunity created for adult family members to retreat or come together as mood dictates. Designed for entertainment, both ground and first floor offer different moods. Indoor and outdoor spaces blur, with natural stone and timber featuring at every level and extending into courtyards and garden views.
Dynamic external architecture pairs with sophisticated interiors to create a home that is a calm retreat yet an entertainment with a focus on natural materials both inside and out. The internal palette is progressively ramped up in terms of glamour as the spaces become more personal with a culmination of luxury in the main bedroom and open plan ensuite.
