The beautifully restored double fronted Victorian Ballarat Barn home by Eliza Blair Architecture already had a lot going for it as a starting point for this project.

Brief for Malvern East House by Eliza Blair Architecture & Studio MKN is to create something unexpected from the street, a haven behind an unassuming facade.

Nestled towards the back of the block in Melbourne’s inner-city suburb, Malvern House by Eliza Blair Architecture is a two-storey addition to an existing weatherboard Edwardian home.

Previously a general store, this South Melbourne terrace has been transformed by Eliza Blair Architecture into a forever home for a young family.
