Houzz Tour: Old Kiln Chicory is transformed into an architect House - Landscape Charles Anderson and his wife Tiziana Launech scoured Phillip Island in Australia for years in search of a traditional chicory kiln, they could turn into a unique holiday home. Chicory fours - once used for drying chicory dock, similar to parsnip root vegetable that grows in rich volcanic soil of the island - are a common architectural feature on Phillip Island. When they finally came to their future home on the beach in Ventnor, they asked the architect and friend Andrew Simpson to transform the historic building into a modern social pension. Charles and Andrew have collaborated to design to produce A home for Hermes , the own art exhibition named Charles showed the Tarrawarra Museum in 07.

When it came to the renovation of the original structure, the gray building from top left you see here before, Andrew took care to maintain the historical charm of the building. To do this, he took a sober approach and contained in the design process and highlighted its traditional features through the use of industrial and recycled materials.
Of course, as a building of the 20th century, the renovation was not an entirely smooth process. The renovation team had to rebuild and restore cracking and spalling of the concrete oven chicory after construction had already begun. To resolve this issue, Andrew has worked closely with the manufacturer and chose to use shotcrete (concrete transported at high speed) on the steel reinforcement.
'It is these unknown existing conditions that can potentially cause a budget blowout, which is why close cooperation with everyone involved was crucial to the project being completed on budget' Andrew said.

The hoop-pine plywood and stainless steel kitchen is one of the quirkier aspects of the house - the escalator carpentry. It can be reconfigured for a variety of uses in the downstairs area, providing both access to the stairs and space additional work plan if necessary.
"Mobile joinery is one of my favorite features of the house," says Andrew. "There is such a variety of uses for it.
The space can be transformed to facilitate a cooking group class, for example, or an intimate meal. by matching woodwork, an open plan fully is created on the ground floor. Carpentry can also act to separate the kitchen and dining room -. Defining more sharply both houses

do not be fooled by the minimalist design of the woodwork. Andrew intelligently designed units with ultimate functionality in mind.
'Every unit of mobile joinery is built on wheels to allow them to easily roll on the floor, said he said. The wheels include breaks so they can be moved safely and set up to allow people to get on and off. "Each unit is based on the same module to allow multiple configurations with flush heights and compatible materials.
