From Mid-Century to Mind-Blowing: The Home Makeover 15 Years in the Making | Connected House

Connected House is a thoughtful transformation of a 1950s mid-century home in Melbourne, where architect Albert Mo carefully balances heritage restoration with modern expansion after more than a decade of reflection. The steep site, discreet extension, and precise alignment of old and new structures create a home deeply connected to its landscape, while features like a custom-engineered drawbridge highlight the project’s spirit of experimentation. With upgraded insulation, all-electric systems, native landscaping, and low-maintenance materials, the house is designed for long-term sustainability and family life that continues to evolve across generations.
