The last few years have seen home makeovers shift from largescale remodels to smart additions, extensions and nifty revamps that simply extend the living area and add a kitchen or bedroom wherever necessary. But the lovely Y Residence in Prahran, a typical suburb of Melbourne, goes down the old-fashioned route as Studio Tate completely altered the existing appeal of the home, its ambiance and the way it interacts with its residents. Barring a couple of brick walls, the entire house is brand new and its novel floor plan sees the living area, kitchen and dining nestled on the top floor while the bedrooms sit snugly below.An extensive timber façade gives the house a distinct identity and sets it apart from its neighbors even as the interior is draped in a relaxing, neutral color palette.
