AIA Jury Citation: House in Lilyfield demonstrates how a relatively small architectural insertion into an existing dwelling can have positive effects across the entire house. Whilst only two new rooms are created in a modest footprint, they provide a variety of different spatial experiences, new connections to gardens and the street, and alleviate the growing pressure of a young family with parents that work from home. Externally the addition is modern in form, conventional in materials, and proportionately appropriate to the context. It shows a delightful approach to managing the updates of ageing weatherboard cottages that is novel and respectful.
