Our client wished to transform the existing building to accommodate his ideal of a multigenerational home where his parents and in-laws could co-live with his growing family. Rather than replacing it, the existing structure was renovated into in-laws and guest pavilion while a new structure was added as master pavilion for his young family.

To create a complex of shared and independent multigenerational living, outdoor activity spaces are strategically intertwined between the 2 pavilions. This creates a secured courtyard at the heart of the home to allow a child-safe activity space directly accessible from both pavilions. These open spaces and shared indoor living spaces act as buffers for privacy between the 2 pavilions while bringing both generations together creating a continuous architectural experience.
