Australian firm panda studio architecture has shared with us a project that they completed for their clients, who wanted to transform a single-storey terrace in a heritage conservation area and bring it up to modern standards.

One of the design elements they chose to include is a wall of Bi-fold windows to open the kitchen up to the small outdoor space.

They achieved this by including a large black-framed window in the kitchen that folds open to connect the countertop with an outdoor bar.

This design allows for indoor-outdoor dining and entertaining opportunities, while also making the kitchen feel larger than it is.

A glass door has also been included to add even more light and to provide access to an outdoor dining area furnished with a table for six.

Let’s take a look around the rest of the home…

Inside, there’s a hallway that leads to the rear of the home, where the living room, dining area, and kitchen are located.
