In Melbourne (one of my favourite cities) OOF! have created this extension to a renovated Victorian shophouse located across from the local café in a central neighborhood hub.  How does your house shut out the world, but still sit confidently and comfortably within it’s environment? How does your house engage with it’s neighbours?  What kind of conversation does it start?  Is it as friendly, cheerful, and whimsical as this house?  I hope so (but suspect not).
