From Sketch to Site: Villa Park Modern

Preliminary Drawings to Built Design // As we kick off a new project in nearby Villa Park, we thought we’d revisit a home completed several years ago in the same area- a modern addition and renovation designed to complement an existing traditional residence with a new, contemporary aesthetic.

Initial line drawings provide a snapshot of the preliminary creative process- below, simple sketches explore potential elevation concepts for the minimalist addition at the rear exterior.

The completed project is a result of this iterative process, in which programmatic requirements, floor plan opportunities, and overall aesthetics are considered in conjunction with site conditions, construction technologies and building efficiency to establish a cohesive and comprehensive architectural design.
