This restored Victorian period home was in perfect condition – but the older style kitchen and poky laundry just didn’t work. The master bedroom was also too small in comparison to the other bedrooms. The brief was to do something with the kitchen and increase the master bedroom, get more light in, and make as few changes as possible. We were given very specific requirements for the look of kitchen cupboard doors and bench tops, and the client was meticulous in her choice of fittings and appliances. 

The bedroom extension is simple; a window seat extending across the width of the room. It feels like it’s always been there. The living space has been opened up, more french doors to the existing rear verandah, and the laundry hidden from view. A formal dining space has been created, and the kitchen is now the centre of activity of the living space, whilst the living area is larger and enhanced. A perfect outcome for our client and her family.

From site selection, feasibility studies, urban design and master planning, through all design, interior design and documentation stages for private and public sector developments, we offer total project management services, endeavouring to fully realise the client’s vision.

We are highly skilled architects with a diverse and extensive range of project experience. We have a strong focus on sustainability, accessibility and affordability and a commitment to utilising innovative construction technologies with practical deployment.

We are able to provide expertise for a vast selection of service including creative conceptual designs, feasibility studies, community consultation, and master planning. In essence, BY Projects Architecture is a design-based practice which offers innovative solutions to architectural environments. An architectural design is more than a drawing or a budget. The design of any construction must reflect the client’s aspirations as well as the community it will join. We believe in a collaborative approach to all projects and are committed to every aspect of our design, following a project with close architect consultancy and project management throughout each stage.

The project team is led by Barbara Yerondais, who strongly believes in a collaborative approach to all projects and has nearly 30 years of professional experience.
