WINSOMERE CRESCENT HOUSE BY DORRINGTON ARCHITECTS & ASSOCIATES

A renovation that brings a whole new light into a house

Why make new when you can improve what’s already there? That’s very often the question that comes to mind. If new projects can let the imagination run wild (as long as the financial means can follow), the element of history that lies in old stones can be missed by some people. And keeping this element of history doesn’t mean that you can’t have a very modern home. Proof is in the Winsomere Crescent House renovation by Dorrington Architects & Associates. Here the contemporary elements incorporate the already existing house and maximize the stunning view over the sea. This way, some beautiful vintage finishes, like the original Art Deco bathroom, are still part of the house, while a new zinc-clad extension contains the new living space and a large window with a fantastic view. Its singular shape brings a second youth to the original house as well as a perfect balance. The result is outstanding!
