Contemporary addition to a previous DAA new build, featuring a semi self-contained apartment that connects seamlessly with the main house and outdoor spaces, completed in 2021.

This is an addition to a previous DAA new build. Five years on a semi self-contained addition has been seamlessly added as a new volume to the front. The brief was for a separate and private apartment but with connection to the rest of the house and the outdoors, a warm sunny space to feel larger than it actually is. The material palette of the original is repeated, featuring concrete, dark stained strandboard and the warmth of ply, ensuring a continuity between the two parts. The apartment houses a bedroom/ensuite and a second lounge with an outdoor sitting area, without compromising on space.

Professional Reviews

1 / 8

“Our extension that DAA designed for us exceeded our lofty expectations. We found the creative process inspiring, collaborative and felt well guided through each step of the building process. From the material palette through to the final bold architectural forms, everything large or small was grounded in Sam’s considered aesthetic and his understanding of the ethos of the project.”
