From the architect: The owners wanted to upgrade the internally awkward and dark middle suburban Californian Bungalow into a light, modern 3 bedroom + study residence.

Through the angling of the glass rear wall, the angling of the eave and decks, the use of a restrained internal material palette and the terracing down of the floor and deck levels to follow the site, the intention was to create a varied + generous interior animated by the light, trees, shadows and landscape.
