A significant late-1960s house by emigré architect Franz Iseke sits within stone’s throw of a cluster of several small modernist gems in a Meadowbank gully. The latest stage of this sensitive renovation has both restored the house’s original programme from a previous mangling and given some much-needed extra space to the current owners. Echoing the existing language of the house, the new second-storey addition is both respectful and confidently expressive in its own right.
