A heritage Victorian façade was the only built element that remained with this East Melbourne infill project. The client, Interior Designer Liz Hall, wanted to merge the old and new with a Parisian apartment flavour. We sought to avoid the feeling of transitioning through a heritage space into a contemporary modern extension.
The rear contemporary, concrete pool house sensitively juxtaposes the classical residential architectural language of the main building which has been designed around a large sky glazed oculus.
