호주 시드니 서부 내륙에, 은퇴한 고등학교 선생님 두분이 살 고 있는 테라스 집이 있다. 영화와 여행, 고양이를 사랑하면서도 작지만 평화로운 뒤뜰 정원과 자카란다 나무도 사랑하는 의뢰인들은, 계절에 상관없이 낮과 밤을 생동감 넘치는 공간에서 햇살과 시원한 바람을 즐기며 보내고 있었다. 그래서 이번 프로젝트는 예산에 맞는 선에서 집의 뒤편을 새로 지음으로써 이 같은 자연을 누릴 수 있게 하는 것이었다.
디자인의 핵심은 여름의 뜨거운 열을 내보내면서도 북쪽으로 햇살을 들일 수 있는 창문들을 두면서 기존에 연결되어 있는 별채를 새로 짓는 것이다. 집의 모든 모통이에서 정원을 바라볼 수 있도록 공간 조직을 분명히 하는 동시에 집 전반에 걸쳐 새로운 통풍 순환이 가능하도록 재치있게 구조를 구성하였다.
A narrow urban lot sandwiched in the middle of a row of terrace houses in Sydney’s inner west. The clients, two retired high-school teachers with a passion for theatre, travel, cats and their tiny but peaceful rear garden and jacaranda tree. The project focuses a modest budget on re-building the back-of-house to draw in green vistas, sunlight and cooling breezes into everyday living spaces so they can be enjoyed day and night and across the seasons.

A void is created in lieu of the laundry, overall decreasing the floor space while improving the homes amenity and sense of light and space. Funnelling winter sunlight and sightlines to nearby tree canopies deep within the kitchen and living room. A green urban retreat, an escape from the surrounding concrete landscape, a place to linger, gather and tell lies.
Key design moves include re-building an existing lean-to to create a light-filled pavilion with floating skillion roof and highlight windows positioned to capture the north sun and expel excess summer heat. To the east the pavilion opens seamlessly onto a new deck and the existing garden via sliding glass doors, drawing the garden inside. A new internal courtyard forms a light-well and link between Federation and new architectures. This link space also accommodates a downstairs bathroom, its low roof permits sunlight to pass over, providing direct sunlight to the court, renovated kitchen and new living pavilion. A new breakfast bench doubles as a window sill, extending the kitchen visually into the existing side courtyard. The original stairs were retained and a more compact laundry installed beneath.
Clever built in joinery aligns to a new circulation spine that runs through the house, establishing a clear logic for spatial organisation, as well as offering alluring garden vistas from all corners of the house.
