Project Description

A second story addition, choreographed around one hybrid architectural element comprising a floating asymmetrical gable roof and sky-lit wall, which anchors the addition to the first floor of the existing, historically sensitive bungalow.

A careful, subtle reinterpretation of an existing vernacular, it gently nudges a familiar formal idiom into a slightly different, renewed one.
