Cloud House in Fitzroy North

The Cloud House is an addition and renovation to a double-fronted Edwardian house in Fitzroy North by McBride Charles Ryan which have been modified several times. The front side of the house is just like a cloud and the other side is look like an ordinary house. This curved form house has a beautiful swimming pool on the front which is adding value to the look. The modern red colored kitchen located in the heart of the property, acts as a bridge linking the major spaces. The extrusion creates a dramatic interior language where walls merge seamlessly with the floor and ceiling. The craftsmanship is remarkable throughout; it has a sense of care one typically associates with the work of a cooper or wheelwright. While the geometry is playful, the extrusion is essentially a contemporary barrel vault.
