The existing 1908 Edwardian style building required reworking into a functional family house.

A two-storey structure was grafted onto the northern face of the building feeding living areas at ground level and bedroom areas above. A new kitchen and living area was inserted into the existing shell connecting the new timber addition and deck beyond. Upper level bedrooms benefited from custom made joinery items, new bathrooms, and the ability to open onto a north facing deck. Light penetration is via a series of light slots with openings controlled by blinds and sliding screens.

Our work is driven by a passion for light, space, natural materials and finely crafted living spaces, coupled with an acute awareness of the sustainability challenges facing the built environment today.

The practice specialises in creating well-resolved, light-filled, tactile and thought-provoking buildings – both single houses and multi-residential projects – for people to live work & play in. Living in a Fox Johnston-designed building is the perfect antidote to the stresses of today’s complex & challenging world.
