Building style
Modern

This project is alterations and additions to a beautiful Victorian sandstone cottage built in 1896 as part of the Randall estate.

The rear of the house had been extensively renovated and altered during the 1980s and 90s, however, the result was not well planned and disguised rather than revealed the original form of the house.  The concept was to restore what was the former artist’s studio, at the back of the house, to become the new kitchen, located at the end of the central hall of the original cottage and a new glazed living room pavilion was added to the rear.

The garden designed by William Dangar compliments the house and the contemporary rear addition. The repetition of a circular motif and large circular planters adds symmetry and formality whilst being clearly contemporary in design and plant selection. The additions and garden are sympathetic to the original buildings, yet are clearly of the 21st century.

About the
Professional

Utz Sanby Architects is an award-winning practice focused on delivering high-quality residential projects. Established in 1994 we have a reputation for delivering great design, service and buildings. We are passionate about design that enhances the lives of our clients, resulting in a positive change to how they live.

We provide a full architectural service for the duration of a project, from initial concept to completion, covering the following progressive stage.

Because the design and construction process can be daunting, we endeavour to communicate, educate and assist clients throughout the process, so that the experience of the design and build is both rewarding and satisfying.

Additional services that we provide include:

  • Pre-purchase site visits – for advice regarding the development potential of a site, in order to help make an informed decision prior to purchasing.
  • Feasibility studies – including analysis of brief and budget; assessment of council constraints; preliminary opinion of probable cost, which may include initial conceptual design.
  • Interiors and furniture selection – our full architectural service includes a selection of internal finishes, colours, tiles, lighting, sanitary and tapware and door hardware. We can also advise on the selection of furniture, fabrics, blinds and lighting.
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.
