petersham park house

Taking its cues from mid-century modernist classics, this addition to a Victorian era house seamlessly brings the outside in. A house that once denied its garden setting now spills onto a travertine courtyard and opens out to the landscaped garden beyond.

Respecting the traditional forms of the period house, the kitchen wing is kept deliberately simple while original rooms have had their traditional features reinstated while others have been re-purposed as open plan living and dining spaces.
