Mid Century Renovation and Addition

A project of passion and perseverance, this mid-century renovation of a 1960s home in Panorama has been a labour of love for the clients.

These mid-century enthusiasts commissioned us in 2018 to help them renovate the 1960s home to accommodate the growing family. The design was intended to look like it was always there, with an extended living area and dining space overlooking the pool as well as a kitchen nestled against a new internal courtyard giving natural light and ventilation to both the bedrooms bathrooms and laundry.

The concept was a one of minimal intervention. The roofline was subtly altered to accommodate the additional space and width of the new house and the spaces were designed so that they were as sympathetic to the original structure as possible.

The project was completed in late 2022.

We engaged Paul to work on a large project (our mid century house) and we can’t recommend him highly enough! Not only did he nail the brief and bring great design ideas to the project - which our family will get to enjoy for years - he has added value in so many ways. He is a great problem solver, has high attention to detail, is an excellent communicator and is an architect you can trust. Would recommend without hesitation.
