Black kitchen cabinetry & brown timber flooring

Gable Revival

"This project involved the stripping back of an over-renovated villa to provide a clarity of design, function and connection. By rationalising / reviving the existing gable roof form and drawing it over an extended building footprint like a tent, we were able to open up volumes within the home and pull natural light deep into the plan. A key element in the client’s brief was to be able to properly connect with the main outdoor living area to the east and to maximise this amenity while maintaining privacy on an inner-city site. Thoughtfully integrated textures, skylights and materials and a variance in cross-sectional volumes provide a series of changing spatial conditions as you transition through the home. Generous proportions and areas of intimate respite make it a home that can accommodate large gatherings or two people equally comfortably."
