The full gut-renovation included removing rebuilding the superstructure of the building. A new steel structure was installed and the floors were framed with engineered wood floor joists. All new mechanical, electrical, and plumbing systems were installed. A custom, floating staircase was created and installed with walnut-treads and landings. Custom cabinetry was fabricated in our woodshop for the kitchen, pantry, and bathrooms. All bathrooms were reconstructed with a mixture of marble and ceramic finishes and all have custom Starphire interior glass enclosures. The property featured a “smart home” system allowing for remote control of all HVAC, lighting, and window shades. The exterior façade of this townhouse was completely restored to its original, turn of the century beauty. The front façade was cleaned, the masonry details repaired and repointed. The stoop was reconstructed to match the original stoop built in 1899. The rear façade had several decades of paint stripped from the surface, then cleaned, repaired, and repointed to restore it to its original condition.

The traditional look of the elevations facing the public road is in keeping with the surrounding houses in the area. Privacy from the public road and driveway was another key consideration. Smaller windows provide greater privacy, which complements the traditional aesthetic. In line with passive house principles, bathrooms and utility rooms are positioned on the northern side of the house. These spaces typically require smaller windows, aligning with the character of more traditional homes.

Traditional Thai homes are usually built as a cluster of physically separated rooms arranged around a large central terrace. Interpreting the traditional typology of the Thai houses, the Residence Navathani consists in two parallel wings, separated by a large garden and a swimming pool. The objective of the stone architecture is to give a sense of unity and blend the building with trees, plants and other natural landscape. Trees are often allowed to grow in the central area of the traditional Thai house with plants always featured prominently to create a strong relationship with nature. The choice of Thai travertine as the main stone for the building stems from the following objectives: first, the stone must display a strong natural character with contrasting color hues and crystalline veins, which contribute to blending the architecture into the landscape. Second, the design of the stone provides a sense of unity to the building. The façade of each wing displays an array of columns of various widths and spacings and there is an alignment of the columns between the two wings. The texture is rough on the outside face of the columns and honed on the sides as it continues through the window to the inside of the house. The two wings are connected by a long screen wall that separates the drop-off area from the private areas. This wall is pierced with square openings which helps to show a relationship between the two areas. The façade facing the entrance features stone in contrasting but related ways: the right hand wing is clad with honed stone on top of a large window, while the opposite wing displays a chiseled stone wall on the bottom with a large window on top. The architecture extends to the outside of the right-hand wing with a private theater of a modern contemporary design. The stone featured on the façade changes to a minimalist grey basalt while continuing the column concept with the alternate textures grooved on the facing and honed on the sides.
