Byron Street
With a young, growing family, the owners of this home needed more space to accommodate their evolving lifestyle. With a large, flat backyard, the ideal design solution was to extend into the underutilized area, creating a seamless connection between indoor and outdoor living.
Designed with a key focus on sustainability, budget, and entertaining, the rear extension enhances both functionality and style. The design flows effortlessly from the existing structure to the new spaces, ensuring cohesion throughout the home. A central hall and high skillion roof allow for an abundance of natural light—even on a rainy day—creating a bright and welcoming atmosphere.
The new open-plan living area and kitchen provide a spacious and practical hub for the family. A raked ceiling adds height and openness, while strategically placed skylights and large glass doors connect the indoors with the outdoors. The kitchen balances form and function, featuring sleek cabinetry, premium appliances, and a generous island bench—perfect for both family meals and entertaining guests.
New flooring throughout ensures a cohesive and stylish aesthetic, while the large decked entertaining area seamlessly extends the living space into the backyard. Designed for year-round use, this outdoor area is perfect for social gatherings, alfresco dining, and family relaxation.
This rear extension is a perfect blend of contemporary design, sustainability, and practicality, delivering a beautiful and functional space that will grow with the family for years to come.
Testimonial
Couldn’t be happier with the design concept created by EMVY for our extensions, they took all of our ideas into consideration and exceeded our expectations with the final result. They are incredibly easy to work with and made the whole process easy from start to finish. Would recommend EMVY to anyone in need of an architect.
