This Home's Courtyard Uses a Circular Cut&Out to Invite Light and Sky In
Tucked into a prominent corner lot in Melbourne’s leafy suburb of Armadale, this reimagined 1882 Victorian-era home has been sensitively adapted into a contemporary retreat for a modern family of six. Designed by Australian firm Taylor Knights, the project balances history with new life, weaving in lush landscape, flexible zoning, and handcrafted materials. From a modest yet refined extension to a sunken lounge and a tranquil central courtyard, every element has been tailored to enrich daily living.
