The house is the result of an exercise in rethinking the existing structure, the result of an extension to a house that belonged to the client’s grandparents. Filled with stories and memories, this delicate piece required care in the way it was altered, reinvented, and imagined.
In this proposal, we sought to integrate traditional elements with a contemporary language, extending the main elevation along the public road. This gesture allows greater natural light to enter, reinforces the relationship with the outdoor space, and promotes a more fluid integration with the surrounding urban fabric.
A house with history, now ready to be the setting for many more.
