Fabric Architecture has completed the modern remodel of a 1970’s red brick Australian classic which had come to the end of its life.
Located in Shelly Beach, the original house had a carport at the front. When talking about the updated facade, the architects mention, “The design consists of a low scale private street frontage that takes from the simplicity of the new Japanese aesthetic.”
