Evolution of a classic bungalow

A thoughtful evolution of a classic bungalow home — a second‑storey addition designed to harmonize seamlessly with the existing structure while elevating its architectural presence. The project reimagines a traditional dwelling through proportion, material continuity, and refined detailing, creating a home that feels established and renewed.

The addition introduces a balanced composition of red brick and dark grey board‑and‑batten siding, framed by warm beige trim and capped with gabled rooflines. This interplay of materials and geometry lends the façade depth and rhythm, ensuring the new volume integrates naturally with the original form.

Inside, the addition allowed for a reorganization of space — introducing new bedrooms, a master suite, and improved circulation. Natural light was prioritized through carefully placed windows, ensuring the expanded interior feels bright and cohesive.

The covered porch and entry sequence were retained as grounding elements, reinforcing the home’s welcoming character.
