By Gel Architects
This residential renovation involved the entire property. Not only did we extend and modernise this traditional family home while keeping its strong character, we also created an ‘outdoor room’ using covered terrace forms to connect the living spaces to a new pool area.
The success of this depended on a successful collaboration with the landscape architect. Our clients were delighted with this outcome, as they were with the contemporary design elements that seamlessly blended into the existing dwelling.
