LOCATION : BOX HILL, VICTORIA
STATUS : TOWN PLANNING
Combarton House emerges as a distinctive single-storey extension to a century-old Californian bungalow, firmly grounded within the historical tapestry of the Combarton Street Precinct. This recent addition embraces and honours the historical essence of its predecessor while simultaneously enhancing the present and future experiences of its inhabitants.
At the heart of this residence lies a meticulously designed courtyard, serving as both the epicenter of domestic activity and a pivotal vista from the primary living spaces. These spaces are intricately linked by a central axis, defining the architectural circulation of the dwelling, culminating in the rear living room where an architectural crescendo takes form—a dramatic gesture in the form of a sweeping curved ceiling.
The interior narrative of the residence is a testament to clever design, seamlessly incorporating expansive residential elements within an unpretentious architectural envelope - one that is driven by function and practicality.
