Camelia Cottage
I just noticed I haven't posted my projects in the forum for a long long long time. In fact, most of which disappeared with PushPullBar1 being hacked.
Anyway, I am going to post 2 projects, one that used to be on PushPullBar1 and have since been completed. The OTHER PROJECT will be one I am currently working on right now and in Design Development stage. For the old-timers of PushPullBar1, you might remember this project titled 'Camelia Cottage', a renovation+extension project for a terrace house in Melbourne.

Terrace houses in inner-city suburbs are usually a layering of various add-ons at various points in time. This very low budget project is trying to minimise the work needed to be done by keeping the existing toilet addition, yet reorganising the space into a more usable and comfortable environment.
Whilst respecting the quality of space in the existing terrace house, I aimed to give a clear indication that this is a dramatic insertion at the back of the property at this point in time. Playing with the existing name of the property 'Camelia Cottage' and the single female client, I envisaged a blossom in the monotonous heritage green, salmon pink, beige and corrugated sheeting urban landscape. It is also very important to draw the attention to dodgy details due to the limited budget and have a bit of visual energy to combat the grey Melbourne weather. It is intended that the insertion to visually link the very intimate indoors to the also very intimate outdoor space. Last edited by SWANK-E; 11-10-2007 at 06:16.. |

Despite my attempts to convince the client to go pink, the client finally decided, after the colour scheme going green (tea leaves), then duck-egg blue/turquoise (glazed tea cup colours), to go blue.

some existing photos... this photo was only possible after cleaning up the mess and pushing over the crumbling rear property wall.
that rotting green structure literally only had about a dozen nails in it when we pulled it down.

existing living room.
as you can see it's a very dark space and the windows and doors are not doing much in letting light in. |

proposed plan and section
The main thing was the introduction of a 450mm storage unit and new facade to the toilet/laundry block. Reorganised the entrance to the bathroom away from the kitchen thereby giving the kitchen more space. The side storage area has also been pulled away from the bedroom window, allowing light and ventilation back into the bedroom. The small window also can frame the plant in that small light court.

some construction sequence.
The 450mm storage unit also houses a rain-water tank for garden use. |
