Wallpaperさんのインスタグラム写真 - (WallpaperInstagram)「A compact bungalow originally built in the 1910s and set in the Los Angeles neighbourhood of Atwater Village has been given a new lease of life by architecture firm @andandandstudio. 🏚️⁠ ⁠ The structure had an interesting back story. ‘We think it was originally built by a WW1 work program that had female construction crews construct small houses in LA,’ say the architects. Still, it was entirely out of sync with modern life, as the rooms were too small, there were not enough bathrooms, the garage was not large enough for modern cars, and the kitchen – now, often the heart of a home – was placed in a dark, out-of-the-way corner.⁠ ⁠ In order to solve their spatial problems, the team decided to move the main entrance from the long plot’s narrow end to the middle of the site, creating an ‘entry tower’. This allowed them to avoid surface-consuming corridors and to dedicate the maximum amount of square footage to the main living spaces. ⁠ ⁠ Now, all rooms are bright and comfortable, and the house is composed of three bedrooms (one with its own walk-in wardrobe), two bathrooms and a separate laundry, as well as a spacious, open-plan living space that encompasses sitting, kitchen and dining areas. An exterior in simple board and batten siding has been redesigned in a custom pattern and tactile, natural materials inside offer a sense of warmth and welcome texture.⁠ ⁠ Take a look inside via the link in bio.⁠ ( 📷 : @yoshihiromakino )⁠ .⁠ .⁠ .⁠ #AndAndAndStudio #LAArchitecture #Architecture #AtwaterVillage #HouseTransformation #WallpaperMagazine」7月21日 22時01分
