Hierarchy & Concept

The idea behind my project was to expose the house to the water view. At the same time I tried to stay true to the original project. We can easily notice the cascade of windows on the water view side. This concept inspired my idea of placing and locating my addition. The original house keeps its shape and beauty, and is not being distracted or damaged by addition.

I wanted to create “contrast” and at the same time harmony with the original shape. The biggest difference is in the elevations. The original building is proudly standing on the hill. The elements added by me are using the hill and its cascade to underline the surface, heading to the bay.
