Haines House / Foomann Architects
Haines Street, the family home of Foomann director Jamie, has evolved with his growing family while being respectful of its 1970s origins. Jamie first renovated the house in 2013 to update the fences, gardens, and interior, consolidating rooms to create larger, more functional, and lighter spaces. Now with two young children, Jamie has added another level, accommodating a third bedroom, second bathroom, and rooftop deck, allowing the family to stay in the house long-term. As a student, Jamie worked for Mike Morris, a director of Morris Pirrotta Architects, who designed the original North Melbourne house in 1970. In this way, the alteration feels collaborative despite the half-century, as Foomann approaches architecture in a similar modernist spirit.
