Mary Residence - IDEA 2023

Mary Residence

Matt Gibson Architecture + Design

Rather than ‘two stylistic pavilions’, this Victorian terrace celebrates old and new as an orchestrated whole connecting simultaneous differentiation and consistency in material, colour and detail. Limited and consistent use of colour, simple darks and lights, and naturally finished materials, basalts, marbles, blackbutt timbers and off-white concrete, permit interaction with the exterior. Front focal elements such as mirrors, chandeliers and feature wallpaper as artwork all have a connection with the decorative lacework and colouring of the Victorian exterior.
