The Luxury of Enough
Extending a small 2 bedroom cottage from 85sqm to 135sqm; this family home punches above its weight by providing 4 bedrooms, 1½ bathrooms, two ‘living’ rooms and a hard working Kitchen & Dining area - absolute luxury! Clean circulation; articulated just enough to provide eddy spaces for the 5 inhabitants to pause, disperse and dance through their domestic lives. Children’s bedrooms need only be big enough to ‘sleep in and to sulk in’. By tailoring these spaces keenly we’ve realised the ‘Room of Requirement’. An industrious additional living space; TV room, lego room, band practice, teen hangout and guest bedroom all delightfully far away from the adult ‘withdrawing’ room. The central Dining & Kitchen space is combined to allow generosity of space and ample circulation while at its heart it’s motivations are that of inclusion; both in terms of daily family life and out to the street as well.
