“It was a joy being asked to carry out a second renovation for this beautiful and significant heritage house, to accommodate a growing family. Architecturally, our approach was to delicately weave additional bedrooms and living spaces respectfully around the charming and dappled pink Heritage house. We created a dialogue of poetic curved volumes and light, internally and externally to enhance the beautiful space.”

From dark and moody to light-filled and open plan this new addition connects the house seamlessly to the garden while providing stylish and welcoming areas for family and friends to gather. Hawksburn House by Melbourne Susi Leeton Architects + Interiors.
