The project
WILLIAM TOZER Associates brought together spatial ideas developed across earlier projects in the reworking of Composite House. A new subterranean level connects to the existing interior through two double-height spaces and to the outside through an internal courtyard.
One double-height space links the lower level visually to the ground floor. The other permits views towards the kitchen and dining spaces from a galleried living area. White planes and volumes articulate the additions as they pass through and around the original building.
The dining space opens to the courtyard beneath a glazed upper level.
