A considered renovation and extension of a Californian bungalow style home in Sydney's inner-west by Robert Parisi Architects.

Careful consideration was given to how the dwelling would evolve as the family grows older, with flexible spaces that can adapt to different uses as required. The planning also encompasses spaces that allow the family to come together as well as spaces that also allow seclusion if desired.

The original character of the existing Californian bungalow has been restored preserving the original street façade with the new addition taking cues to complement and acknowledge its precursor whilst upholding its own bravura.

The new family home has comfortable open planned living spaces with a strong connection to the outdoors and offers tremendous entertaining opportunities.
