Existing first floor in large roof space. Existing upstairs rooms jammed together with no sense. Alterations to add rear wing to blend in with existing architecture and unify the rear of the house whilst extending in a contemporary way. New pop-out kid’s playroom to rear of site.

A rumpus room or family playroom is associated with the values of generosity and sharing. Taking the space typically allocated to the master bedroom, the rumpus room can instead enjoy a view, lots of natural light and be tucked away in a more private aspect of the home. As a 'universal space' it has flexible uses eg: sleepovers and office. In this way, the traditional master bedroom space can effectively be 'given back to the house' for the whole family to enjoy.

About the
Professional

At TDDP Architects, we specialise in creating family homes for contemporary living.

We understand that no two client’s needs, lifestyles or budgets are the same. As such, we want nothing more than to facilitate the process of grounding your ideas in reality and bringing your dreams to light.

We will walk you towards your vision through all aspects of architectural design and the building process. Whether it’s a new build house or a home renovation, no project is too large nor too small.

At ArchiPro we recognise and acknowledge the existing, original and ancient connection Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples have to the lands and waterways across the Australian continent. We pay our respects to the elders past and present. We commit to working together to build a prosperous and inclusive Australia.
