DNZ'S RESIDENTIAL PROJECT FEATURE
A classic California Bungalow in Chatswood, thoughtfully reimagined for modern living.
At 12 McLean Avenue, the goal was never to erase the home's characterâbut to preserve what made it special while creating a space that works beautifully for today's lifestyle.
Original heritage details were carefully retained, while a contemporary extension introduced more natural light, improved flow, and a seamless connection between old and new.
From ornate ceilings and warm timber finishes to custom joinery and a sculptural kitchen, every element was designed to balance character, function, and everyday living.
The result is a home that feels both timeless and contemporaryâwhere heritage charm meets modern comfort.
