About the winning project

This project involved a major renovation to the existing Federation period home, including part demolition of the existing structure and constructing a two-storey extension. The extension was a combination of masonry walls and lightweight timber framing which were built on a substantial footing system. The floor was constructed in traditional bearers and joists opposed to a concrete slab, as this worked with the existing ground levels. The subfloor in the existing part of the building was completely replaced. Much of the plasterwork in the existing building was either restored or replaced with great care as to maintain the age and era of the existing building.
