Written by A creative reimagining of a very solid – but very ugly – 1960’s brick garage – into a light and bright, highly efficient, 2 bedroom dwelling, maximising in-town convenience, large garden space, great winter solar gain and natural light, and a lovely outlook through treetops and across open public parklands. A class leading 7.4 energy star rating (whilst using only conventional and cost effective building technology) reflects the considered design. A significant design feature of this house is the excellent use of a compact footprint – the building achieves independent bedroom and bath zones for two bedrooms, car and storage space, and clearly defined living and lounge zones, whilst retaining over half the <500m2 block as garden and outdoor living.
