The 12South modern addition

The 12South modern addition
Project detail
Project detail
Project detail

A 1940s bungalow on a narrow lot, with a growing family and no room left to grow.

The challenge

Zoning limits meant the addition couldn't get any wider, and the owners wanted the original street-facing character preserved.

What we did

We designed a two-story rear addition with a cantilevered roofline and clerestory glazing, keeping the bungalow intact from the street while doubling the living space behind it.
