这座位于悉尼东部的1920年代的平房已经被更新，以适应一个年轻家庭的需要。一个可怜的20世纪70年代的后院加建物被小心翼翼地从原来的房子里移走，历史细节被保留下来。后面的新加建部分具有现代的建筑和室内语言，灵感来自于老房子。
This 1920s bungalow in Sydney’s East has been updated to suit a young family. A poor 1970s rear yard addition was carefully removed from the original house and historic details preserved. A new addition to the rear has a contemporary architectural and interior language inspired by the old.
现有的房子只对街道立面进行了高度的装饰：它被渲染和建模，并有一些复杂的corbelling和fretwork。与此形成鲜明对比的是，房子的侧面立面完全没有装饰。新增加的建筑从这种装饰的减少中得到启发，并向后花园展示了完全平坦的立面。因此，房子的公共面是装饰性的和褶皱的，而私人面是安静的、诚实的和不加装饰的。这是私人家庭生活的朴实无华的一面。
The existing house is highly decorative to the street elevation only: it is rendered and modelled with some complex corbelling and fretwork. In stark contrast, the side elevations of the house are completely unadorned. The new additions takes its cue from this diminution in decoration and presents are totally flat elevation to the rear garden. Hence the public face of the house is decorative and frilly, while the private face is quiet, honest and unadorned. It is the unpretentious face of private family life.
