Designed by Hobbs Jamieson Architecture, this project involved a studio extension to an existing detached double-garage home on a large suburban block, to create a multi-purpose space and lower-level sauna.
The project scope involved an addition consistent in scale with the lower level footprint displaying an architectural aesthetic in line with the original period detailing of the main home, and future renovation aspirations of the owners.
The Hobbs Jamieson Architecture design team focused on taking full advantage of the views toward the harbour and creating a tranquil, private self-contained space filled with light that can accommodate multiple uses, from extended family stays through to additional escape/ exercise space for their clients.
The result of their work is a building that rests well in the context of the larger home on the site, responds to the desired aesthetic, and creates a comfortable generous space to oversee the pool deck area and views beyond.
