dc House involves alterations and renovations to a classic, early heritage listed Canberra house. The works included re-mapping the internal living programs and introduction of clean detailing and warm tones for the new elements. Steel framed windows and doors to large apertures introduce high levels of natural light and views to the mature gardens adjacent. Detailing and material choice is considered and modest to retain a strong sense of presence of historical finishing, trims and proportion.
