The kitchen and living rooms open fully to the outdoor dining areas, encouraging shared enjoyment.
Completed by Zen Architects, the Up-Cycled Warehouse project transforms a 1960’s warehouse into a comfortable, sustainable family home. Although the existing structure lacked the inherent beauty of older Victorian era factories, the unique character and history of this building were retained and enhanced through the detailing and materiality of the new additions.
Designed by Zen Architects, the Ashburton Trail House is an immersive architectural experience, drawing the power of the Australian landscape into every space. Built on gently sloping land in suburban Melbourne, this contemporary and environmentally friendly home is designed to integrate seamlessly with the inherent natural beauty of the existing site.
Kids’ Pod is an extension pavilion connected by a glazed bridge to the Hill House, a house built in 2006. Both the house and the new pavilion were made by the architect Mihaly Slocombe
