The renovation of a Victorian weatherboard house with a vast new extension by Sydney-based YSG took into consideration the diverse tastes of the owners. One is Danish with an appreciation for clean finishes and pale timber. The other is Egyptian-Australian, passionate about pattern, tactility and colour. Vivid gem-toned panels encircle an apricot front door, setting the tone for a vibrant interior. A dark peach hallway, accented with matching tiles and a timber-framed sliding door, leads to a luminous living area. The house’s transformation includes coloured glass windows, hammam-inspired bathrooms, and pixelated porcelain tiles that blur the line between Persian rugs and modern design, creating a unique blend of cultural influences.

Dating back to 1871, Ellsworth rests serenely along a tranquil country road in northwestern Connecticut. Originally a sprawling 1,200-acre dairy farm, its current thirty-three-acre expanse of woodlands and fields preserves the narrative of its evolving past. Having admired the property for years, the renovation by Hendricks Churchill was carefully considered. Today, Heide Hendricks and Rafe Churchill call it home, honouring its history through ongoing enhancements, including maintaining hay fields and repurposing the dairy barn.
