grove house

This new addition to a heritage-listed dwelling in inner Sydney was a response to a constrained and challenging site. We proposed to carve out the rear of the floorpan to catch morning sun, which led to an angled building clearly distinct and contemporary from the original dwelling. A roof garden over the entire new addition provides natural thermal benefit, softens the architectural form and responds to the private green grove which this home adjoins.
