[ ALTERATION / ADDITION ]
A rear addition and internal reconfiguration of a traditional timber weatherboard Bungalow on a small site.
The heavyweight brick clad massing of the annex addition contradicts the stereotypical lightweight lean-to add-ons commonly found on older character homes, and creates a contemporary private sunken living space opening to a contained outdoor semi-courtyard.
The interior of the home has been reconfigured to create a generous open plan living space; three bedrooms; and ancillary spaces within a compact building footprint.
