THE PROJECT

Working with what

is already there.

150 House begins with an existing residence whose potential extended beyond its original layout.

The renovation focuses on understanding what could be retained, what needed to change and how the existing structure could support a more functional and contemporary way of living.

The result is not a replacement of the original house, but its transformation through a series of considered interventions.

THE STRATEGY

Reorganizing around

everyday life.

The strategy starts from the plan.

Existing spaces are reconsidered to create a clearer organisation between private and shared areas, while the main living spaces become the centre of the home.

Rather than adding complexity, the new layout uses circulation, connections and spatial relationships more efficiently — allowing the existing footprint to work harder.

SPATIAL TRANSFORMATION

Same house. A different experience.

The transition from existing to proposed plan is driven by how the house is experienced rather than simply how many rooms it contains.

The intervention introduces a more open and connected heart to the home, improves the relationship between bedrooms and supporting spaces, and creates a more intuitive sequence from one area to another.

Within the existing structure, the house becomes more generous, functional and aligned with contemporary living.

INSIDE & OUT

Extending the way the house is lived.

The generous exterior becomes an essential part of the renovation rather than residual space around the building.

Different outdoor areas are given distinct uses for dining, gathering, recreation and relaxation, allowing everyday life to extend beyond the interior.

This new relationship between house and garden increases the usable experience of the property and gives the existing home a much greater sense of space.

ARCHITECTURE & INTERIORS

Giving the existing a new identity.

Architecture and interiors are approached as a single transformation.

A restrained material palette, contemporary detailing and a calmer interior language bring cohesion to the reorganised spaces while respecting the scale of the existing residence.

The intervention gives 150 House a new identity without disconnecting it from what was already there — showing how thoughtful design can create greater value through transformation rather than replacement.
