SMALL FOOTPRINT, BIG IMPACT

Downside Up House by WALA Architectural Studio is a project encompassing the restoration of a heritage house and the construction of an extension that turned out to be anything but normal. The triangular-shaped block was gifted an extension that located its living spaces upstairs and its bedrooms downstairs. This configuration was based on the privacy and security provided by the neighbour’s boundary wall facing the laneway.
