SEASIDE ELEGANCE
We were presented with architectural plans from our client and engaged to bring the planning to fruition for the seaside Edwardian home.
The brief was to highlight the leadlight windows and unique features of the facade and to design a second storey extension that blended seamlessly from the street view. The use of warm neutrals, timber flooring and clean lines throughout the interior were strategically designed not to compete with the historical features such as the ornate ceilings, but to celebrate them.
The angular timber staircase, paired with the transparency and openness of glass leads the eye up to an expansive welcome onto the second level. The rear extension created an additional bedroom and master suite on the second level with a modern kitchen and dining space below which leads to a bayside alfresco area. An architecturally designed laser-cut screen was not only installed for privacy, but to add a decorative element that’s visible from the interior and the back of the property.
