Came­lia Cottage

The exis­ting house had various addi­ti­ons over the years and they were poorly built and very run down. The inte­rior spaces were poorly lit and the exte­rior spaces poorly uti­li­zed due to ill con­cei­ved planning.

Ter­race hou­ses in inner-city sub­urbs are usually a laye­ring of various add-ons at various points in time. This very low bud­get pro­ject is try­ing to mini­mise the work nee­ded to be done by keeping the exis­ting toi­let addi­tion, yet reor­ga­ni­sing the space into a more usa­ble and com­for­ta­ble environ­ment.
Whilst respec­ting the qua­lity of space in the exi­sit­ing ter­race house, we aimed to give a clear indi­ca­tion that this is a dra­ma­tic inser­tion at the back of the pro­perty at this point in time. A blossom in the mono­to­nous heri­tage green, sal­mon pink, beige and corru­ga­ted shee­ting urban landscape.

The win­dows in the living room once again act as the source of natu­ral light. A sto­rage plat­form flows from the new lean-to into the living room and pro­vide add­tio­nal
built in sea­ting. Alt­hough the chim­ney was remo­ved, the memory of the old fire­place is pre­ser­ved by the design of the sto­rage wall. Old bricks were main­tai­ned in the same loca­tion for the hearth which now is a place for the TV.
