Renovating and updating this old Victorian home built space for this modern family to grow. Read more

Transforming a Victorian home into a contemporary family sanctuary with seamless indoor-outdoor connections and sustainable design.

Renovating and updating this old Victorian home built space for this modern family to grow.

We were referred to a potential client who were considering purchasing a property.

Having previously renovated the property next door, we understood the potential challenges that could arise from the property. After assessing the location, orientation, and amenities, we advised our client that the original property had great potential and was worth developing into a family home.

We were responsible for managing the project from start to finish.

Our primary focus was to seamlessly connect the living room to the garden, creating a space where our clients could feel calm and connected to the outdoors.

We wanted to create an environment where our clients could relax and enjoy the natural light and the magic of the garden.

Working closely with a skilled builder, we were able to restore the original dwelling while also achieving high environmental standards for our clients. We are thrilled with the outcome and take pride in delivering a project that has transformed our client’s property into a contemporary family home.

“It was a pleasure having DiMase Architects work on a major upgrade to our terrace house in Fitzroy. Antony commenced our project with his customary quiet and confident demeanour, and his wealth of experience quickly became evident. Antony and Niea listened carefully to our requirements and guided us deftly through the process, providing excellent advice along the way. They were able to skilfully accommodate our ever-changing needs, and went about the business always with good humour and yet the utmost professionalism. We liked Antony’s passion for the environment, and his ideas to create high quality, sustainable solutions. We also liked Antony’s willingness to share his considerable knowledge and to train and empower the younger members of his team, and his pride in ensuring a diverse and inclusive work environment. In addition, Antony’s passion for the use of his bicycle as a mode of transport regardless of the distance and weather conditions was enviable and arguably unparalleled. The result of such passion and pride in his work resulted, in our case, in a clever architectural solution that struck the perfect balance between comfortable, contemporary living, and a nod to the Victorian heritage of our home.”
