The clients for the Edge House renovation in Coburg, VIC, sought a contemporary extension to their Californian bungalow. Their objective was simple: to bring cohesion and flow between the old and the new, creating a home that supported the rhythms of modern family life with spaces that felt open yet intimate, adaptable yet enduring. Dean Dyson Architects transformed a maze of disconnected rooms into a beautifully sequenced family home.

In the bustling urban environment of Malvern, VIC, Dean Dyson Architects designed the Cloud House to be a private sanctuary. The clients sought a home that mirrored their calm, peaceful nature, celebrated their present life, and accommodated daily rituals of wellness and meditation. The result is a residence defined by effortless flow and a unique feeling of being unbound, despite the constraints of its narrow, challenging site.

When an architect is asked to design a home, the goal is always to create something beautiful and functional. But when Dean Dyson Architects took on the challenge of designing the House of Fortune in Collingwood, the brief was much deeper: to weave a client’s childhood memories and connection to community into the very fabric of the renovation.
