The existing Dwelling presents two symmetrical pavilions facing Mugga Way and adopts a formal and geometric stance to the public domain.
The new parts of the house which replace a previously jumbled and eclectic extension strive to follow the theme of the very distinctive existing forms. The orientation of new elements also ensures a direct relationship to the private garden areas and promotes an excellent Northern solar orientation from the casual living spaces.
The break between the new in the old is emphasized by a dramatic and iconic glass floored bridge spanning over a lap pool.
The resultant design produces an eminently livable house whilst retaining the architectural integrity of the original.
