Tuesday night talks at Tusculum featured the recent works of Sydney Architect's Welsh + Major.
The beauty of the Fitzroy Terrace project is in their approach to the layers of building fabric. By peeling off each layer with respect for it's heritage (significant or otherwise) and making a conscience effort to consider the original functionality of the work and evaluate it's use within the current context; the Architect's were able to juxtaposed the layers of original texture and new work in a way that raises questions about heritage value in Australia.
