DESIGN CONCEPT
The design pays homage to the bungalow’s historical essence, preserving key architectural elements such as the gabled roof, original facade, and intricate woodwork. These timeless features are meticulously restored to maintain the charm and authenticity of the home, ensuring that its historical value is honored and celebrated.
Complementing the preserved heritage, modern design principles are seamlessly integrated into the bungalow's structure. Clean lines, expansive glass surfaces, and contemporary materials create a harmonious balance between old and new. This fusion enhances functionality while respecting the bungalow's architectural integrity.
CITYSCAPE VIEWS
One of the primary goals of the revival is to capitalize on the bungalow's potential for panoramic views. Large, unobstructed windows and thoughtfully designed outdoor spaces provide breathtaking vistas of the surrounding cityscape and natural environment. These features not only enhance the aesthetic appeal of the home but also create a sense of openness and connection to the outdoors.
Modern Integration
The interior spaces are reimagined to offer a modern living experience without compromising the bungalow's historical charm. Open floor plans and multipurpose rooms cater to contemporary lifestyles while preserving the warmth and character of the original structure. The careful integration of natural light further enriches the living experience, creating bright, inviting spaces.
Unified Aesthetic
The revival creates a unified aesthetic that blends heritage and modernity, resulting in a cohesive and harmonious dwelling. The design narrative is one of continuity and evolution, where each element contributes to a holistic and enriched living environment.
