Starting as a solid 70s shell, this inner city townhouse was transformed into a chic, cosy, functional abode for a couple and their cherished fur babes. The new features are influenced by cues from salvaged building elements, such as retro timber wall panelling, modestly painted bricks, and bold exposed structure. Refined finishes and strong colours blend with humble building elements, celebrating the subtle retro patterns of the existing home. The small-but-mighty garden blooms with life in ever-changing hues. This was considered an extra room to gaze upon and relax in as an extension of the living space.
