Although it spanned a mere 85 square metres, when Cassie Steel and Majid Dubloo happened upon this home in Sydney's inner west six years ago, they instantly fell in love. Fast forward to 2022, the family had grown to five and Majid and Cassie were finally feeling the pinch of the home's petite floor plan. So, the pair enlisted the help of Mariah Burton of Folk Studio to rethink its footprint. “The house is really old, built more than 100 years ago, and many parts of it are subject to a heritage overlay. Because of this, we couldn’t do much in terms of changing the structure.” Making use of every opportunity, Mariah specified an abundance of storage, durable materials and clever ways to utilise forgotten spaces. |
