Noted by the Architect of Record
Ryan Liedner, the project was, "Conceived as a home in two parts, the more private functions of the house take place in the newly built 2-story structure at the rear of the lot, while opposite the courtyard, a remodeled front building is used for more social functions and gatherings."
Liedner further noted that, "Drawing on the courtyard-house typology, the project centers around an interior garden, which is the first space one experiences when entering from the street."
Regarding the new structure at the back of the property, Liedner indicated that, "While maintaining a compact footprint, the new house has an open kitchen/living room, half bath and garage on the ground floor, and 2 bedrooms and 1 bath upstairs."
I love what Liedner did here, blending the old with the new. I wanted to us the word "seamless", but it didn't seem to apply here. What does apply though, is a repurposing + new construction project that is architecturally handsome and immensely livable.
Bravo!
