Article source: Stukel Architecture “Chamfer house stealthily integrates a first-floor addition to an existing federation style semi-detached dwelling located in Sydney’s inner-west. The ‘chamfer’ was inspired by the 45deg geometry of the existing tiled roof and allows the building to minimise its presence to the streetscape whilst maximising its orientation to take advantage of summer and winter sun angles. On the lower level, the ‘pop-up’ window over the kitchen and dining zones cleverly frames a view to a mature and very present tree canopy in the rear courtyard. A double height void serves as a central internal connecting device, providing much needed light to the living, kitchen and dining zones below.  Image Courtesy © Mark Syke

The upper and lower levels are interconnected by a winding staircase and internal balcony linking the public and private zones. The internal balcony also serves as an intimate viewing platform to gaze over the deciduous tree canopy.”  Image Courtesy © Mark Syke  Image Courtesy © Mark Syke  Image Courtesy © Mark Syke  Image Courtesy © Mark Syke  Image Courtesy © Mark Syke  Image Courtesy © Mark Syke  Image Courtesy © Mark Syke  Image Courtesy © Mark Syke  Image Courtesy © Mark Syke  Image Courtesy © Mark Syke  Image Courtesy © Mark Syke  Image Courtesy © Mark Syke  Image Courtesy © Mark Syke  Image Courtesy © Mark Syke  Image Courtesy © Mark Syke  Image Courtesy © Mark Syke  Image Courtesy © Stukel Architecture  Image Courtesy © Stukel Architecture  Image Courtesy © Stukel Architecture
