Plympton Residence / Contech

Walking past this 1950’s Art Deco home, it’s evident the clients were focused on preserving the character of the existing stone façade.  From the street the building is seemingly understated creating an element of surprise when moving through the existing home. The extension was designed for a growing family who love to entertain, so it was important to create flexible living spaces that are connected to outdoor areas.  Operable steel framed glazed partitions define these transitions, with the cantilevered concrete edge providing a threshold as you step down onto the deck.
