Colmar
Our client purchased the property due to its elevated position and valley views. The original design brief was to assess the viability of a replacement dwelling but in developing the concept proposals it became clear that much of the original dwelling could be retained. We simply removed the roof, added a cantilevered first floor extension orientated down the valley and refurbished the property to provide a cohesive design philosophy.

We carefully developed a scheme that retains the footprint of the existing dwelling.
Although modern in aesthetic, the material palette of weathering timber will allow the building to sit congruently within the landscape and complement the local vernacular style.
