Transformation of a prototypical suburban ranch style home into an open plan, modern residence. A re-envisioning of a mid-century ranch home, StudioMB’s design takes advantage of a sloped site to allow a free-flowing connection between interior and exterior. The main floor was gutted to provide a modern open plan. The addition provides bedrooms on the second floor and a series of terraces that connect the living spaces to the site. The walk-out basement provides informal family space as well as an au pair suite.
