A quaint, two-tone single-fronted brick cottage in North Carlton has been restored to it’s former glory, and enhanced by new additions at the rear.
The house lies within a heritage overlay and is surrounded by predominantly low-rise brick cottages and townhouses. Existing site conditions were restrictive but north facing, thus enabling the proposed additions to maximise northern light to all new living and service areas.
A proposed new carport drapes over an existing brick structure in the backyard, to incorporate any “loose ends” under one roof. The proposed roof uses polycarbonate sheets to allow sunlight through; its form is a nod to service station design from the 1950’s.
Dark colorbond cladding and recycled red-bricks re-used from demolition works enforce sustainable principles and create a contemporary, yet sympathetic cubic addition to the period home. Existing grapevines survived the entire construction process and will create a future natural shading device against harsh westerly sun.
