Reclaiming Emotions
Natural Light | Structural Stability | Contemporary
This 40 year old residence, located in the heart of the city had to be renovated both structurally and aesthetically as the residents had issues like corroded weak structural system along with plants growing on the wall. It was functionally designed to primarily tackle issues with light and ventilation.
An additional bedroom along with some floor space had to be fit inside the pre-existing form by creating fluidity between the old and new spaces. Structure had to be strengthened to stabilize it and further prevent damage. The spaces had to be natural well lit as a contrast to the previously dark interior spaces.
By using natural materials like stone, earthy tones and beautifully crafted brass elements the building gets a traditional character which blends with the contemporary. This character gives it a unique statement by merging the exterior environment with building.
The core of the residence is the skylight over the open treaded stairs, which not only lets natural lights inside, but also brightens up the spaces all around it.
Elegant furniture, sumptuous fabrics, gorgeous textures and splendid accents create noteworthy focal spaces which can’t be missed. The bedroom spaces reflect the distinct personalities of the users.
