KILLARA HOUSE

Our recently completed Altoncourt estate project on Sydney’s Upper North Shore was once home to the Gullick family, whose most notable member is William Gullick – the man who designed the NSW Coat of Arms and pioneered colour photography in Australia.

​

The home’s new owners set Nathan Gornall Design the task of sensitively contemporising the house, which is aged well into its second century.

​

The process of updating an historic and culturally significant home can involve all sorts of intricacies you might not face with a standard renovation, but this is the kind of challenge we eagerly embraced.
