The project consisted of major alterations and additions to a 1920s bungalow within the Artarmon Conservation area. The existing house had been poorly and unsympathetically altered over many years. The new works retained the original front rooms and front façade of the house and added a new side entry and living spaces which open completely to a new terrace, garden and swimming pool at the rear. New bedrooms and a playroom are situated within a roof form designed to fit with the original style with minimal impact to the street frontage. A carport forward of the building line was a challenge for approval. It is designed as a flat, pebbled roof form that is subservient to the pitches of the old house. The result of the works is a great home for a young family.

About the
Professional
Our aim is to design site specific houses that improve the lives of our clients. Well proportioned spaces and forms which closely relate to the attributes of a site are life changing for the people who use them everyday.
Our method is to rigorously and logically analyse each site and brief and to arrange each response in an efficient and artful way. Central to the analysis and response is a thorough understanding of the client and their requirements.
Castlepeake Architects is a small, design focused, Sydney based architectural practice with many years experience in all types of residential architecture including new, altered and heritage houses. Our small size allows director input into every project from initial design to completion on site. We are a close knit and passionate team with a focus on design excellence and client satisfaction.
