Contemporary addition to a classic Californian bungalow, featuring playful brickwork, elegantly framed timber windows, and seamless indoor-outdoor living spaces, completed in 2020.

Warm winter sunshine fills the living spaces of this carefully organized addition to South Fremantle architecture. Nestled against a classic californian bungalow, playful brickwork animates the wall of a new Garage.

Daylight is filtered through ornately framed timber windows & doors, arranged with inspiration from the decoration on original verandah rails. Opening the elegant bi-folding doors creates an uninterrupted flow of spaces; linking courtyard, living and front yard areas of the house.

The original cottage has been lovingly restored to highlight its rich textures. Street life is connected with a reinstated west verandah.

Professional Reviews

“Nathan Steele from Steelehouse Architects was our preferred architect for our recently completed major home extension in Mount Hawthorn, Perth. Steelehouse provided a full-service including design, documentation and quality review during construction. We cannot speak highly enough of Nathan and his team' sensitivity and ability to meeting our requirements whilst ensuring a sophisticated and exceptional design. The design process was thorough yet very enjoyable and personable - addressing cost and buildability at every turn. They also managed submission of the DA, costings and compliance. Steelehouse are highly accomplished architects offering great value for money - but more than that - our home has become a place of deep joy, beauty and satisfaction for the whole family. They have an eye for form, materiality and detail that we truly appreciate only now at completion. Everyone in our community have provided very positive responses to the dynamic and interesting design. The speed with which we completed the project is a testament to the well considered construction documentation and site communication with trades. Equally the project came in exactly on budget - a great relief to us as owners. We are overjoyed with the process and outcome for what was a large scale project considering the budget, We have no reservation in recommending Steelehouse Architects and would be happy to be contacted privately to discuss in more detail.”
