Location: Redfern, NSW
Architect: Mark Privett, Plan Workshop
Description:
This project was an extensive renovation as the property was a run down old terrace.
The aim was to have large open plan living areas that allowed natural lighting and ventilation.
The terrace also consisted of a self-contained unit on the lower ground floor as well as an office.
The attic with a dormer window overlooking the city.
The challenging part from a builder’s point of view was the demolition of all the existing timber floors and walls three levels up with only the roof structure maintained. The main features of the home were the internal louvered windows and light well, which allowed cross flow ventilation and light other main features included the 5 metre floor to ceiling living area, open staircases, stone floors and a beautifully finished kitchen.
