Project Type: Renovation
The linear, layered form of this softly modern plastered concrete and cedar-clad home, inspired by Scandinavian design, cleverly disguises the original, defaced bungalow.
A strongly directional gabled roof with wide eaves shelters the new upper level containing bedrooms, which appears to float over plastered masonry walls separated by large areas of glazing.
From the entrance hall on the southern street side, a new circulation route follows a line down the length of the house, past an internal courtyard to various interconnected living spaces which break out into the private, north-facing garden. The plan allows vistas through the house, and diagonal connections across rooms between courtyard and garden.
The kitchen is a family gathering place with central table and flooded in sunlight through a continuous band of skylights. Similarly, glazing over the stairwell gives it the feel of an internal atrium.

About the
Professional
Hamish Cameron Architecture is a multiple award winning practice established in 2017. Hamish has over 35 years’ experience working in architecture completing residential, hospitality, winery, commercial and interior projects. During his 29 years at Archimedia, and its predecessor DEM, Hamish’s projects received awards at both local and national level.
HCA has a particular passion for residential design. Working in both new build and renovation, we craft buildings and spaces with quiet atmosphere and soul that reflect the unique character of their owners and bring calm and a sense of well-being to their lives.
Our design approach is not style or fashion driven. Design often evolves from the inside out resulting in simple forms defining thoughtful, well-proportioned spaces enhancing everyday human activities and characterised by natural light, warm tactile materials and the subtle use of colour.
Sensitive to culture, context and heritage, and respecting our relationship with the natural world, we aim to instil our buildings with timeless character and beauty.
