A Californian bungalow located on the fringe of Melbourne's CBD, was fully renovated with a contemporary yet sympathetic extension that includes new open-plan living areas, bedrooms and bathrooms within the existing footprint.
New areas were designed to maximize a northerly aspect and views to an extensive garden beyond. Approximately two-thirds of the house were demolished and re-built to respect the surrounding landscape, by avoiding the removal of a significant magnolia tree that shade the house in summer. This created an opportunity to cantilever out a section of new roof to provide shelter from the elements.
A new light-well lined with floorboards slices through the ceiling space to create a delightful point of interest that defines the open areas below.
The new light-well allows for excess heat built-up in summer to be expelled via motorized louvers. Additional insulation, solar hot water and solar panels were included to increase efficiency levels.
The renovation works were completed by on-budget and generally exceeded the home owner's expectations and brief, much to the delight of everyone involved on the project.
