Originally built in the 1960s on a steep site in Canberra, this house was transformed by Townsend + Associates Architects into a refined contemporary residence over a fourteen-year, two-stage process. The renovation introduced new living spaces, expansive decks, and a distinctive sawtooth roof that fills the interiors with soft natural light. Combining masonry, timber, glass, and steel, the design enhances the home’s connection to the landscape while expressing a bold, modern identity.
