gnarly house
single storey renovation
and extension.
The gnarly house started as a
project to add to the ground
floor area of an existing two
storey bungalow. The clients
were successful in procuring an
adjacent lot to the south of
their existing house and the
brief called for the neigbouring
house to to demolished in order
to make way for living, dining
and kitchen facilities, a study,
powder room and a guest suite.
The design had the cars left
outside of the amalgamate site
boundaries, reclaiming valuable
garden space and modulating
the house addition masses with
garden rooms. Aesthetic
continuity between the old and
the new was helped by a west
facing concrete verandah, and
enclosures of local clay brick
with interior specifications and
finishes bordering the gnarly.
