An addition to a dark Federation style semi detached dwelling in Sydney's inner suburbs. A design that has carefully cut, fold and shaped the existing to create a light filled family home that is modest in scale but clever in design.

What was the brief?
A new open plan living kitchen and dining room with direct level access to the rear garden. A new laundry with drying court. A first floor addition for 2 bedrooms and a bathroom. Master bedroom to have views of the city skyline. The house is to incorporate best possible sustainable / passive solar design principles.

What were the key challenges?
To achieve the look of an individual house in a semi detached context. Achieve best possible passive solar design principals in a dense urban environment.
