Before
The Dulwich Hill addition is a project defined by detail. The client’s brief was simple: a modern outdoor entertaining space. The design evolved into a carefully resolved structure that elevates the everyday into something architectural.
Steel columns are paired side by side, with one carrying structure and the other concealing a downpipe. This quiet move transforms a practical necessity into a considered feature
Skylights are set above the timber battens, allowing soft, filtered light while maintaining a continuous ceiling finish that feels warm and refined.
A well-designed entertaining space can extend the living areas of the house, creating a seamless flow from indoors to out. Here, the connection between living, garden, and pergola makes the rear yard an integral part of the home.
