As space wasn’t a limitation with this project, we decided to open up the back of the house and design a contemporary barn style addition that takes full advantage of its garden setting. Existing internal areas were remodeled creating functional spaces that draw you seamlessly through to the new kitchen, living and master suite. The orientation of the light and airy addition creates great potential for indoor/outdoor entertaining as well as maximising thermal efficiencies throughout the year.
All windows were replaced and the brick on the original house was painted white, a direct contrast to the vertical black cladding on the addition. This striking colour palette and the mix of old and new materials work together to create a cohesive textured building – a great example the transformation that can achieved through home renovation.
