Substantial alterations to a grand Mt Victoria villa, featuring a light-filled kitchen and modernized bedrooms, harmoniously blending contemporary design with the home's rich heritage.

A substantial alteration to a grand Mt Victoria villa. The existing dark rear of the house was opened up from above, with a light filled kitchen providing better connection to the living areas.  

Clean crisp lines marry with rich timber joinery and detailing to complement the existing character of the house.  Upstairs, the bedrooms and bathroom layouts were updated, with an overall modernisation sympathetically balanced with the house's heritage.

Professional Reviews

“The team from LOCA took our brief and budget and designed a light-filled, inviting home for us. In particular we appreciate the sculptural form of the house and how well it nestles in to the end of the ridge line. Kudos to Ana for the bold choice in the brilliant exterior paint colours which light up the neighbourhood at night. Tim provided timely and skilled solutions during the build when invariably changes were required. We were impressed with his ability to sketch details with a pencil and paper in the northerly gales that a builder could easily understand. Ben was fantastic at helping with the joinery details and the lighting including sourcing both new and vintage lights. It was a pleasure to work with them and we were impressed with how they responded to our suggestions along the way.”
