This project transforms a 1960s house into a shared home for two sisters, following years of impersonal apartment living. Existing doors were removed to create a continuous interior where daily life overlaps. A built-in edge integrating kitchen, storage, and seating forms the social core, supporting both routine and gatherings. Working within a limited budget, the design focuses on retention and restraint, using timber and neutral materials to create continuity. The result is a home shaped by connection rather than rooms.
