Austin Maynard Architects has designed an adaptable multi-generational home called Charles House. Located in Melbourne, Australia, the 348-sqm (3,746-sqft) house was completed in 2017.
The clients wanted a house they could live in for at least 25 years. They wanted a home that would grow with the family, anticipating and accommodating different demands at each stage. They wanted a home that could adapt to the needs of their young children as they grew into adulthood, and a place where they could comfortably accommodate grandparents in the near future. They asked for a practical, low maintenance house and garden filled with light and water features and blurred distinctions between the indoors and outdoors.
