Trojan House

An unassuming Edwardian house in Melbourne Australia was transformed into the magnificent Trojan House by architect Jackson Clement Burrows. The rear addition houses three children's bedrooms cantilevered above a large living space, and wrapped in a seamless timber skin that conceals any obvious openings. Windows, covered by shutters that follow the pattern of the façade, reveal nothing of the interior space. While the exterior resembles a rustic collection of Jenga bricks, the interior is a clean modern space bordering on space ship fantasy. I love the exterior design, but I've come to admire homes that encourage a seamless flow between interior and exterior living. This isn't one of them.
