The most interesting objective of this project was the vertical extension of the attic, which tackled the ethical problem of the continuation of the modernist façade. Parasite-like façade models that clearly differentiate between the contemporary intervention areas and the original elements were not deemed appropriate in the case of this project.
We proposed an element of modernist inspiration – the ribbon window – inbetween the existing façade and the new addition, which is reinterpreted by way of the exaggerated length, all around the house, with vertical deviations that correspond to the needs of the interior space.
