This renovation and addition to an existing Victorian style house in bayside Melbourne is designed to respond to the changing needs of an active, growing family. Robust, flexible and relaxed spaces were core to the brief. This project involved a complete renovation of the existing double fronted house, and the addition of a double storey extension to create a multi-zoned family home. An open study area and feature stair are set within a sculptural double height void, which becomes an open transition point within the house between old and new. The new addition features a large open plan living space at ground level and a children's zone on the first floor. Designed for the flexible arrangement of furniture, the main living zone can be configured and reconfigured to accommodate the changing needs of the family. A robust natural material palette creates comfortable spaces and a sophisticated yet relaxed bayside family home.

“After finding a perfect block for our family beach house at Portsea we then had to decide on how we wanted the house to present. After finding ‘the look’ that we loved we were led to Mitsuori - Matt, Melissa and their team - to put it all together. The brief was for a ‘Wow factor’ house with simple lines, lots of glass, concrete and timber, plus a coastal feel and suitable for a multi-generational family. We believe we have achieved all this and more. Through the design and then documentation process Matt listened, answered all our queries and then followed through with a minimum of fuss - even recommending our builder, Paul, with whom we worked happily through the whole project. The build came in exactly on budget with only a couple of cost extras which were anticipated and costed early in the process. We have achieved a fabulous, stylish family beach house and would be more than happy to use and recommend Matt, Melissa and the Mitsuori team to do it all again.”
