Walkerville Residence
Adelaide, South Australia, 2020
A narrative that sought to create considered connections between old and new, revel in detail and provide classic contrast, was developed to “test” and frame all decisions. This has resulted in an extensive reworking of the existing plan, and an addition of uncommon volume, luxury and sophistication.
The interior resolution has as much informed the exterior as the latter has the former. A classical elegance is present in the detailing of joinery and finishes, with materiality the thread that knits comfortably the contemporary new work and the traditional older spaces.
