Erica Street, Windsor
Extension to existing Heritage Dwelling
-
An upper storey has been added to a traditional Victorian terrace in Windsor, providing additional living space while carefully responding to the heritage streetscape. The extension is clad in sleek metal panels, creating a contemporary counterpoint to the ornate period façade. The design preserves key heritage sightlines, ensuring the new addition reads as a respectful yet modern intervention. Strategically placed cutouts allow natural light to penetrate deep into the interior, enhancing the spatial quality of the upper level. Through careful proportioning, materiality, and detailing, the extension balances functional expansion with visual refinement, creating a dialogue between historic and contemporary architecture.
