CLAREMONT RENOVATION
The house was not ideally orientated, with little natural light permitted into the building along the northern side. Adding windows to the northern side of the lounge dramatically improved the quality of light and therefore the quality of that room. The approach of reuse was again applied in this room, with an existing marble fireplace the owners had salvaged from a previous home installed between the new windows. The brick hearth was a remnant from the original room, which we chose to maintain and refresh, creating a pleasing juxtaposition of materials and a warm focal point to the room.
