ADDITION TO AN EXISTING ORDER
The goal of this project is to expand the 1965 architect Richard Meier's "Smith House" with an addition. Without compromising the original design's architectural integrity, this addition to the home will include new systems, patterns, and conceptual analogies that satisfy the owners' needs.


Narrative & Idea
"The Smith Family love the art of photography. Mr. and Mrs. Smith, would love to have a dedicated space to express their love for photography. Adding a Family room with circular walls to highlight the shape of a camera lens and to view photos from their collection.
