Extension : Geelong West, Victoria
This cottage style house provides a great separation between the old and new. While walking through the existing corridor, you are guided through to an expansive volume that contains the open plan living, dining and kitchen area. The volume is further enhanced by the sloped ceiling which maximizes the glazing and light opportunity to the South.
With the challenge of this existing cottage style house having North to the street, the extension was considered to allow as much North light in as possible through clerestorey windows. While the large high performance South glazing provides additional ambient light to ensure the open plan living remains bright.
