Renovating a heritage home can be a challenging process to navigate through, but once the historic and cultural significance of the building is identified one can easily establish with the authorities what is worthy of preserving and therefore work within a framework. It was imperative to maintain as many historic features as possible. This could be appreciated in features such as the old supporting ‘hnejja’, reminiscent of the past which has been kept, freestanding feature as the entrance to the open new mixed material staircase. We got also creative with other features such as the old wooden apertures which have been renovated and reused as table tops and mirror frames.
