Contextual Fit

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.
