Looking at the traditional Victorian facade of this 1880 bungalow in Adelaide, Australia, you would never imagine it hid such a voluptuous and modern derrière. Engaging both an architect and an interior designer to collaborate on a renovation and two-story extension, the residents managed to open up the interior and transform the back of the house into an improbably airy and light-filled retreat.
The back, however, is a different story. The shape of the roof eave is designed to allow winter sun into the house while cutting out the hot summer sun.
