Media summary

The rear addition to the White House Prahran creates a mini rooftop oasis in the inner-city Sprawl. The egg shaped roof terrace hovers over the illuminated garage to address both the street behind and the house and garden. As time passes the hanging garden will change seasonally from green egg space to charcoal space in the winter. The illuminated moon door adds perspective to the courtyard garden and the street when entertaining.

The clients are away and we will provide this on their return. They are very happy.
