Outline

Two houses has undergone a major renovation to bring diverging styles into one with a new glass bridge - to link aesthetically and spiritually, while keeping the identities for the two generations. Rather than making extensive additions, it is intended to facelift by reduction of unnecessary elements. The landscape plinths are demolished to givev a generous Middle Garden stretching the site depth. The swimming pool, with the original enclosing walls taken down, overflows to form a water backdrop for the Garden.

Evaluation

This design is not connecting rooms together simply, it using bridge to connect 2 generations but make them independent. Garden or living room also cane be used for a background of the other space. This design intended to facelift by reduction of unnecessary elements, and explore the most rational use of the space.
