FITZROY APARTMENT

​

A simple renovation of a 65m2 two bedroom apartment originally built in the late 60's that carefully adds new to the old.

​

Carpet was pulled up in the living areas and the underlying concrete floor polished and sealed, new flat white paint was applied over the original semi-gloss beige paint, leaving a series of unpainted circles of the original colour, and a number of new cabinets on wheels were made out of different types of plywoods,

​

Half of the kitchen was replaced to upgrade the hot water cylinder and rangehood and add a dishwasher drawer. Built out of stainless steel and mirror laminate the new parts reflect and blend in with the remaining original built-in cabinets.

​

A nook for a washing machine and drying area was squeezed in next to the bathroom where the tiles were pulled up and replaced with a continuous surface of black rubber and cork. And the original toilet and sink just had to go!
