A small terrace in Sydney’s inner city suburbs, takes on new life with an injection of natural light and clever spatial planning.
With the existing dwelling being dark and pokey, the brief aimed to make the home light and give it the appearance of being bigger than it really is. Utilising the architects trademark skylight along one side of the home opened up the internal spaces and brought a sense of the outside in. The skylights provided somewhere to look outside and gave a sense you could be anywhere.
To assist in making the spaces feel larger, cabinetry was kept along one wall, allowing for more space, and dark accents were used against white walls to give a sense of depth
