This project is located in a small pocket of the leafy Sydney suburb of Woollahra. The project involves the alteration and addition of an existing, heritage listed dwelling. The existing dwelling forms part of a row of single storey terraces houses, all of which share their rear boundary with a public park.

The alteration & addition reconfigures the interior to accommodate the needs of the clients growing family. The original portion of the house contains a small study/guest room and a living room. The new double storey addition contains a powder room/laundry and an open plan kitchen/dining room on the ground floor, and two bedrooms and an amenities upstairs. The new living room has a strong connection to the rear garden, ensuring that the compact spaces retain a generous spatial quality.
