Basis
This is an adaptation of an existing residential house and an extension of another one in the existing floor plan boundaries of an old woodshed.
Design
Just like in Stupica's picture both houses are connected via separate external atriums and loggias. The empty space between them connects them both on a archetype level, which is based on the same model formulation despite their different use and character. The empty space becomes an essential living space and architecture by itself.
