Maitland

Old and New linked with an enclosed veranda structure

The home consists of two pavilions.  Fronting the street is a modest gable roof pod that takes its cues from the oldest homes in the suburb.  The glass veranda provides a flexible interstitial zone both to the street and the eastern courtyard garden.  To the south of the block is situated a contrasting rectangular form.  The external corners comprise of diagonal blades that frame each elevation.  This part of the home will be built to Passive House standards.  A small basement provides long term storage for wine and food.
