PROJECT DESCRIPTION

Renovation and Addition in a Heritage House at Balmain NSW.
A balanced approach to renovating a heritage home often involves preserving the original charm of the front portion while introducing a contemporary addition at the rear. In projects like these, the front section typically retains key architectural elements, such as detailed millwork, sash windows, and brick or timber facades, maintaining the building’s historical integrity. Meanwhile, the new rear extension allows for greater design freedom. It can feature modern materials like glass, steel, and sharp minimalist lines to create a striking contrast. This approach seamlessly blends old and new, enhancing both the heritage value and modern livability of the home
