Mihaly Slocombe designed this brightly colored addition to the Joyful House located in the outskirts of Geelong, Victoria, Australia. The clients came with a strict budget and high expectations, desiring an expansion on the house that opened up to the backyard. Along with the new, open living space, there’s a large deck the whole family can enjoy.
This house is what we like to call a ‘house mullet’, where the front facade is a completely different style than the back. In this case, the sloped modern addition extends a weatherboard workers cottage that retains its original charm.
The large living space features a sloped room that leaves room for a mezzanine level above. The open deck is covered in translucent fiberglass that allows light to pass through to the interior.
The interior joins a bright yellow with crisp white and light wooden details for an airy, contemporary space.
They eliminated handles on the cabinet doors to allow smaller hands to easily open them.
