We used our present day mind set and under laid the historical departure point as the basis for the homes transformation and re-birth. The overlapping masses were virtualised into an open plan still creating highly functional and performing home areas such as the custom designed kitchen. The masses were given a diverse materiality in the same key (dimensionally) with amazing sensorial results. The kitchen island becomes a skylight, that become a custom designed marble table that in turn becomes a re-dimensioning device over the living space and doubling up as a giver of light and cool air. On a different trail a horizontal timber plane becomes a vertical sliding door and then a timber backdrop concealing a hidden door.
