SCOTT STREET BALCONY INSERTION
SOUTH FREMANTLE |
2012 - 2013 (COMPLETED)
Project team: Philip Stejskal, Cathrina Read Photography: Bo Wong Builder: Peter Bell Constructions A little project comprising the enclosure of an existing balcony to augment internal living areas. The enclosure faces north and has been designed to preserve as much natural light as possible to the internal spaces. The roof rakes steeply towards the north within prescribed height limits. The interior of the enclosure is lined in plywood down to former balustrade height. Louvred clerestory windows funnel light down and expel hot air. The pitch of the roof inversely references the existing expressed stairwell. A box gutter at junction with existing discharges via a rainhead on each side.
