This article from Green Magazine discusses the transformation of a Victorian home in Northcote, Melbourne into a biodiverse habitat that connects humans with nature. The homeowners, Gary and Melanie, were inspired by stories from the magazine and collaborated with architects, builders, and designers to create their dream home. The project involved improving the thermal performance of the house, installing solar panels, and creating flexible living spaces with a strong connection to the outdoors. The highlight of the home is a biofiltered swimming pool that supports thriving biodiversity. The design successfully combines old and new elements while maintaining a single-storey structure. The article also provides specifications and floor plans for the project. [Extracted from the article] |
