Fitzgerald Residence 

Smart, Free Flowing Spaces

AMG Architects, together with the owners of this circa 1910 weatherboard home, created smart, free flowing spaces that reflected the owners’ style, character and sophistication while remaining sympathetic to the home’s period origins.

The completely remodeled kitchen and dining space is set off by a stunning 3.4m long Stone Italian “Cristal” island bench which draws the eye to subtly defining the kitchen and dining spaces.

A feature glass and aluminium cabinet, containing the owners’ precious glassware and crockery collections, is a striking example of the creative partnership that defined this renovation.

Likewise, a chance spotting of some stylish chartreuse-green tiles in a design magazine set the creative wheels in motion for the creation of two luxurious ensuites.

From the striking green marble floor tiles to the large frameless glass shower recess, oversized window, cleverly designed niches, and luxurious rain shower, the master ensuite exudes sophistication.

AMG Architects’ signature louvered window design creates a sense of flowing spaces, improving the natural light and air flow.

Throughout, it is the personal touches that enliven this property with a unique character and spirit.

“I was speechless when the kitchen came in. I was grinning like an idiot. The design makes connections with people, feel sociable and comfortable.” – Owner

Testimonial

“It’s the bumps and bruises that makes a home so the extensions needed to be sympathetic to the age of the house. We consider ourselves creative people and we were looking for a local architect in the Prahran or St Kilda area who was familiar with the period style homes as well as contemporary renovations. I was speechless when the kitchen came in. I was grinning like an idiot. The design makes connections with people, feel sociable and comfortable.”
