2021 Southern Architecture Awards Winner
Marinoto House, Stage 2, Mercy Hospital
With a committed client, this historic 19th-century house is being carefully restored in stages. The restoration of the first floor, acting as a template for subsequent stages, demonstrates the architects’ meticulous research into the materials, finishes and details of the original building. Although original elements have been reinstated wherever possible, in some parts new details have been subtly inserted. While heating and lighting has been upgraded, original radiators and light fitting have been retained and refurbished. In part to manage budgetary pressure, existing furniture has been retained - for now.
