A Complemented Tudor

This modern Tudor home juxtaposes the original black metal windows against freshly revealed existing plaster forms, that both draws out the inherent character of the home and informs this breakfast/kitchen addition. The glass end reflects the existing 50-year-old Hemlock trees, and a window at the opposite peak looks up to a green roof. Carving a new axis and cross-axis bookended by windows allows light to reach even the center of the originally dark Tudor style architecture. A bomb shelter discovered during demolition of the basement inspired a new wine room. Its walls are still left exposed behind new glass, referencing the structure's history and transcending the space into a new era.
