Budget Renovation of Sydney Home Brings Japanese Charm to a Heritage Setting
We admire designs that bring in contrasting styles, finishes and even stitch together inspirations from different eras. But this becomes an even more challenging task when you wish to combine traditional Japanese style with modernity and wish to do so in a heritage setting Down Under in Sydney! That is just what you get with the Machiya House designed by Downie North Architects; a fabulous blend of the contemporary and the oriental on a budget that is not one bit extravagant. The street façade and the front rooms of this Aussie home were largely left unaltered with a new master retreat, study, dining area, kitchen and living space in the rear extension.Heritage home in Sydney combines modernity with classic Japanese formOn the upper level that feels like an extended attic space, you have the spacious master suite along with additional storage areas and smart shelving. The flow between the interior and the exterior is enhanced using a gorgeous rear yard and the new L-shaped addition ensures that the street façade of the heritage home is left as undisturbed as possible. White and wood is the color scheme of choice inside and you have exposed brick wall sections and a bit of greenery providing lovely contrast.
