Old cottage gets gleaming glass addition with garden view
If you're looking for a little "wow" with your architecture, look no further - the Taringa House designed by Australian firm Loucas Zahos Architects created a contemporary addition that transforms this humble, existing cottage with a modern glass volume open to nature.

The house is a lesson in opposites: historic and contemporary, front and back, public and private, visitor and family. Here's the tour. -
