A modern transformation of a heritage-listed bank in Brighton, Melbourne, featuring prominent timber elements and sleek VM Zinc finishes, completed in 2019 by JFK Designs for clients Richard and Robyn.

Location: Melbourne, VIC | Architect: JFK Designs

In the delightful Brighton precinct, the old bank has been modernized. This building contains an office space in the offices alongside Richard, this contemporary modern apartment has been a welcome addition to the heritage-listed building.

The unit is full of features, use of timber is prominent throughout the property with spotted gum ply use in the majority of the joinery, the timber floor and internal cladding wall in the same solid timber. This timber is complemented with the inclusion of VM Zinc from the external elements brought internally around the fireplace with colour plate used throughout.

Externally the concrete finish and VM Zinc are clean and simple which leaves the structure to stand out on its own. As you will see this without doubt an extraordinary example of what dreams can create!

It’s a credit to Jackson Fitzroy-Kelly, Richard & Robyn Lingard & the RCBG Team.
This has been an extremely exciting project to be involved in and is a stand-out in our portfolio. We are proud and excited to “Create Dreams” this is a testament to that.

What would it be like to be on holiday when you are at home?
