Monet is an architectural gem in Fitzroy North, thoughtfully reimagined through a collaboration with Pepper and Well Architecture. This renovation and extension transforms the original home with the addition of a striking second storey, carefully balancing contemporary design with the character of its inner-city setting.
Wrapped in custom privacy screens, the upper level welcomes filtered natural light while creating a sense of seclusion and depth across the façade. A refined palette of eucalyptus green tiles and matching window frames pays homage to the surrounding landscape, beautifully complementing the warmth of timber flooring and bespoke cabinetry, alongside mechanically polished concrete floors that anchor the home’s contemporary aesthetic.
Recognised for its considered design and exceptional craftsmanship, Monet is currently shortlisted in the 2026 Houses Magazine Australia Awards, celebrating a home where architecture, materiality, and liveability come together in perfect harmony.
