From the architect
The existing semi-detached house was a 30 year old house that had stood the test of time.
Our clients approached us for a reconstruction of the existing house- with the intention to cater for their family consisting of the couple and their 2 young children.
From the start, our brief was not to maximize the buildable area.
The family appreciated the outdoors and the greenery in front of the house was to be preserved.
It was a play area the children would most enjoy on an elevated land a few steps above the car porch.
In rethinking the use of the spaces, we sought to make the indoor spaces functional whilst enhancing them with a connection to the outdoors.
