Mt Eliza House
Built by hand by the original owner, this 1940s period home in Ascot Vale is a labour of love. With all the grandeur to be expected of an art deco dwelling, the former building itself was quite modest in its construction, with just two bedrooms in the efficient arrangement.

Xavier House, Hawthorn Property
Located at the end of a dead-end street, Xavier breaks away from its neighbourhood context by eliminating a front fence – a simple gesture that allows the site to spatially appropriate well beyond its title boundaries. The house then, in this context, becomes the physical barrier between the public and private realms – a layered, folding screen.
