How a bold renovation brought a 1960s family home into the modern era

Like so many houses built in the 1960s, this Australian family home needed the type of renovation that would keep all of its old-world charms, while bringing it firmly into a modern era as a functional and comfortable living space. Cue very clever, and very playful, design.

With Sydney-based design firm Amber Road at the helm, the renovation saw large parts of the house reconfigured and redesigned to be more practical in its everyday use. Among these, the entire rear facade was removed and realigned with the second storey; while the kitchen was moved to the ground floor, where previously it had occupied a part of the second storey. In place of the old kitchen, a third guest bedroom was built, along with a loft, study and an en suite.
