Located in Devonport’s heritage neighbourhood, this project transformed a 1980s house and garage into a contemporary home and pottery studio. The new design balances contemporary design sensibilities with the area's traditional scale and character. Rich materiality and bespoke interior and exterior design create a comfortable and timeless home.
Its short-comings of limited accommodation, poor indoor-outdoor flow and generally poorly executed past alterations were successfully addressed in the re-design carried out by Salmond Reed Architects.
Exterior improvements included reinstatement of the front verandah, new entrance gable and steps, additions to rear, dining pavilion, double garaging, fences and entry lych gate.
Interior improvements included interior re-planning, retention of existing pressed metal ceilings and period fireplaces, new central stair and kitchen and bathroom updates.
