Adding to an Existing Order

This project applied an addition to the famous Smith House that was designed in 1965 by Architect Richard Meier. The objective was to add a new system of rooms and spaces without interfering with the concept of the original design.

Narrative

Rick and Linda are newlyweds thinking of purchasing a beach home for their summer vacations. They were interested in the property but wanted an addition. They mentioned that they wanted an incorporation of a stingray into their addition as it represented the first time they met each other at work as marine biologists. Since they prioritize comfort and rest, they requested for the main focus to be the master suite. In this suite, they wanted the main focus to be the master bedroom.

Meta Idea: Stingray

Hierarchy: Master Bedroom
