City Home Renovation

In the historic Kalorama district, three disjointed additions are replaced with a single city house design that expands eating spaces and refines circulation while also meeting other basic programmatic needs such as storage spaces and powder rooms. At the completion of the city house project, the final city home is a straightforward composition that preserves the three-bay existing order side to side while delineating original architecture from an addition front to back. A metal and wood conservatory, sympathetic to the homes of its era, is added as a contrasting but complementary form that defines the original house from the addition.
