WILSON TERRACE

Located in a Heritage conservation area on a narrow site 4m wide site, with a 2.5m fall from front to back. The simple brief for this home was to improve the natural light, utilise the rear northern aspect and provide a connection to the much loved rear garden. Through the collaborative design stage, it was concluded the renovation should be contained within the existing building footprint, to minimise materials and contain costs. The final design is a careful replan of internal spaces with considered separation of public and private zones. Additional floor area was gained by converting the existing attic into an office space, with a large picture window to capture city views and blue sky.
