From John Wardle Architects:

This thoughtful house riffs on diverse inner-city conditions of local materials, history, and form. Located in a gritty pocket of an inner-city suburb, this house is wedged between an existing Victorian residence and a 1960s garage.

The facade wears its influences up front. Brickwork is patterned in a pixellated representation of a spray can’s sweep. A large window frame reverses the expected order of planning by exposing the activity of the kitchen theatrically to the street. The original graffiti artists who had painted the boundary walls when the site was vacant were commissioned to return and reconnect their original paintings into the house itself.
