The clients of this addition were interested in expanding their existing 2 bedrooms, 2-bath house.
Cruciform in plan, the existing house did not “lend” itself to expansion easily.
A strategy of utilizing contrasting elements that lightly touch the existing house clarifies the relationship between old and new.
As the program requirements for the two level scheme were not symmetrical, a shifted upper level volume was adopted over a simple stacked solution providing a covered veranda adjacent to the new master bedroom.
