Upward Extension of a Bordeaux Typical One-Storey House
The project involves raising the height of the existing house to create a bedroom and bathroom. This will be the first elevation on a street lined with one-storey homes. The idea is to create a contrast between the new and the existing structures and to stack volumes with a unique architectural design.<br />
<br />
The steel cladding adds a modern touch to the facade, while the champagne-coloured joinery complements the blond Bordeaux stone.<br />
<br />
Inside, two rooms facing each other are separated by the shower room, and inhabited walls are used to maximise the volume of the rooms.<br />
