This is South Melbourne Residence 2 was designed by Nicholas Murray Architects. This project involved the reconstruction of a Victorian timber workers cottage on a site measuring 8m x 30m. Local council and heritage guidelines meant the new building had to be concealed under a 12 degree line taken from the front gutter. The design outcome was a large 2-storey extension with a skillion roof following the view line.

Located in St. Williams, Ontario, Woodside House was designed by Dubbeldam Design Architects. Situated in the corner of a large farm overlooking fields of barley, the house is conceived as a L-shaped volume defining an outdoor courtyard garden. Full-height windows look into the courtyard, creating the perception of an outdoor room that extends the interior space, and allows views across both wings of the house for a feeling of openness. Opposing clerestory windows provide privacy to the public face of the building as well as excellent natural ventilation.
