Similar to many family homes, this one grew as the family has grown and matured. There were a number of uncoordinated spaces, inside and out. This home had undergone several extensions and renovations. This ‘final’ extension and renovation seeks to co-ordinate all the previous attempts and create terrific indoor/outdoor living spaces.

A re-model extension which boasts a ‘cottage feel’ in a contemporary family home, enhancing natural light penetration and linking existing outdoor living spaces. Introducing the re-invention of the window seat. A glass and timber enclosure with scatter cushions; pods into the established garden.

About the
Professional

At BY Projects Architecture, we embrace a quality design approach with client collaboration throughout the design and construction process. 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.
