ABOUT THE HOUSE

• The renovation architecture and interior design is by Whiting Architects, 0400 107 744; whitingarchitects.com “We designed the layout so a portion of the house could be closed off and preserved for the owners,” says director Steven Whiting. “The existing building had no real front door or formal entry. We bridged the existing breezeway with a massive arbour structure to flag the overall entry and define the outdoor dining space.” • Materials, such as steel, are marine grade, or galvanised and protected, and claddings, including corrosive resistant porcelain tiles and concrete render, were used to withstand the elements. • Bartlett Architectural Construction carried out the building works. 0407 811 421; bartlettconstruction.com.au • Cabinetry by Abcraft Cabinets, (03) 9782 3042; abcraft.com.au • Interior styling by Janita Mcmahon from Calamity Jane, calamityjane.com.au • Fiona Brockhoff Design designed the walled garden. fionabrockhoffdesign.com
