Don’t you just love a repeat Client that once resided in one of our Short Street terraces they purchased as a newly married couple. Now a growing family of four, they have given us the ultimate ‘wish list of dreams’ to go forth and make fabulous architecture in the inner-west of Petersham. Choices, choices, choices, we had great delight in producing four very different architectural concept models representing the modern two-storey rear addition forms and shapes to capture northern light, ventilation and that enviable roof balcony accessed by an external steel stair. After much deliberation Option C was selected, one year later we received DA consent from inner-west council.
