House at Cambridge Street.

Transforming a heritage home to accommodate a changing lifestyle requires attention to both design integrity and planning regulations. A two bedroom Victorian bungalow with its inherent contradictions of high studded ceilings and boxy rooms, is unlikely to meet the needs of today's family. Modern living requires open-plan areas that connect the kitchen with the dining, living and outside areas.

When the owner bought the home featured here, he was single. He then got married, and it was when the couple were expecting their first child that they decided to do something about their poky kitchen and living area. Architect Craig Rossetti had to embrace the new without compromising the old and comply with the strict planning regulations that are imposed on a house under heritage protection.
