Never Too Small

Documentary
While we're still social distancing, we were able to capture another episode of Never Too Small in Melbourne. We'll be sharing more of our usual episodes as restrictions lift.
Lauren and Nicholas Russo found Karoot while searching for a home for their growing family, together they lovingly converted the 40sqm mid-century apartment into a two bedroom home. Focusing on supporting the existing feature wall and full height windows.
The space is laid out to guide towards the outside view, using multipurpose curtains to add texture and conceal utilities. Each of which is seamlessly integrated with concealing joinery and materials that flow throughout the home. With a focus to maintain and preserve Lauren and Nicholas are keeping older housing alive and used.
