Traditional designs and methods were not an option in this case so the architects had to think different to adapt their ideas to the climate and location. The client’s main request was to transform the look of the existing house and to make it look more modern. In order to do that, the architects focused on the street façade and created a beautiful entrance with a water feature. They also added a new guest bedroom at the client’s request. It’s located on the first floor.

The living room was also remodeled. It’s now an open space, more inviting and airy. The bedroom sections were also redesigned. As you can see, a lot of changes have been made to the house. Not only that it has a new look but it’s also more functional on the inside. The house has a strange design with a mix of styles. It features a vaulted roof that was not the best choice for the hot summer months.{found on architezer}.
