Case study: Fitzroy North House
It’s a simple, elegant, well-considered design that inspires a sense of tranquillity and comfort from the busyness of the outside world. Fitzroy North House is a labour of love for interior designer Alessia Ferrarini and partner Ben, tailored to the needs of their young, growing family. It celebrates the completion of the first project in Alessia’s newly founded practice, Alessia Ferrarini Design Studio.

More than that, it celebrates the completion of the first project in Alessia’s newly founded practice, Alessia Ferrarini Design Studio.
The heritage-listed, two-bedroom terrace, purchased in a state of disrepair in late 2020, has been thoughtfully restored and extended into a three-bedroom, two- storey home. Both Alessia and Ben loved the location and the heritage frontage, retaining it as a unique aspect in the design. Perhaps the greatest challenge was balancing the heritage aesthetic with a new contemporary addition, while minimising the visual impact of the first - floor extension on the streetscape.
