Lake House Residence

2nd Floor Renovation / Expansion

A strategic expansion of a 1970s lakeside home relaxes the second floor, letting it hover above the land. Careful alignments, purposeful zones, and modular walls shape a compact plan that flows seamlessly from space to space. The home’s newly expressed face floats. A new gable welcomes visitors into a generous entry sequence, beginning a quiet subtle exchange of art and nature, unfolding throughout the project.
