Victoria Gardens in Prahran is a hidden respite for locals from the dense bustling neighbourhood.
Our approach was to further promote a sense of sanctuary throughout the design of the house by engaging with the adjacent park context.
The design reworks an existing 1880s house into a contemporary family home.
