Rozelle Home

When a busy architect decided to re-design his inner west Sydney home, his main objective was to retain the original sandstone two-storey section of the terrace house and create a new open plan area to incorporate a kitchen/dining and living space.

Taking his inspiration from the use of brick in Sydney School Architecture and combining it with other materials such as timber, glass and concrete the architect has created a space that is comfortable, infinitely unique and aesthetically exciting.

An innovative design feature is the use of bricks as an internal flooring material that gives the room a great solidity and grounding while still providing texture and warmth to the home.

The flooring also unifies the indoor and outdoor spaces by the consistent use of bricks through the open plan kitchen/dining and living area into the home's courtyard.
