The project, an extension of a typical three bedroom 70s house, investigates the simplicity of light in form, colour, and detail.

The design features a new main bedroom with floor to ceiling windows, bathroom, walk-in-robe, hallway joinery and a timber deck to the north. These graft themselves to the eastern elevation of the existing house, offering renewed privacy and natural light to the clients, a family of five. The plan pulls back to create two private courtyards, one seemingly internal, featuring Japanese Maple trees. The extension leads users to double back twice, revealing both sides of the entrance wall, before entering the main bedroom space which offers views down the valley to the site’s north-west.
