The Redefined Beauty of the Fremantle Additions in Western Australia
Spotted in Western Australia is a modern house completed by Jonathan Lake Architects. This displays a contemporary design with the materials that definitely speaks of the great elements used to highlight a unique style. Well they intended to use the rammed limestone walls that provide a great explanation why they used the rubble walls in the existing house before they redesign it. Well the original house design faces on the main road and seated at the subdivided block with a shared vehicular access to a contemporary house.
Also the original house has a corrugated iron roof over rough heavy walls with dark interiors and it has no connection to the external environment. Well the client requested to replace the existing fibro lean-to at the rear that composed of the kitchen, dining, bathroom and the laundry. While the only additional request by the client was to have a separate en suite off the main bedroom.
