Buried amongst the urban chaos of warehouses and terraces that once served Sydney’s rag trade sits a unique home neatly packaged within a 29-square-metre site. Designed by SJB director Adam Haddow for himself and his husband Michael and their dog Eric, this new home was an exercise in how to take a postage stamp site and do more with less, while achieving all the amenities of a ‘big house’. With this in mind, Adam posed the ultimate challenge for him and his family—“Could we show how living with less could result in more: [more] outlook, garden, amenity, ventilation, and joy?”

Adam's favourite aspect of his new house is how it engages with the community. From collaborations with artists, including the front gate bronze sculpture by Mika Utzon-Popov, and an all-enveloping landscape canvas by Nicholas Harding in the living room visible from the street, to the bricks by Krause, rejected from another project in Sydney. “Everyone walks up to the building and touches it—they love the texture of the bricks and the bronze artwork,” says Adam. “I believe that buildings should make you smile. I hope that people get as much joy out of the house by walking by as we get by living in it.”
