Jonathan Lake Architects
Jonathan Lake Architects is a Perth architecture practice whose Lunchbox projects show a careful, crafted touch with existing homes, alongside a demonstration of affordable new-build design.
Fremantle Addition reinterprets a limestone cottage with skilful restraint, using limestone in a modern way to create spaces with similar qualities to the original without imitating its historic style. Floreat Additions carefully inserts colour and light into a modernist-inspired house, reorienting it to the garden and street without detracting from the original. Maylands Additions is a work of humility that builds on the material richness of a heritage-listed home. North Perth House set out to show that a generous, architect-designed family home can be built affordably on a small inner-city battle-axe block.
