Housing addition and Extension, Jerusalem



Feasibility study and schematic design, 2011



This scheme turns the single-level flats in the unassuming, 1960's housing blocks into double-level duplexes, utilizing a partially-open, ground service floor as extension for the lower flats, while adding a floor on the roof as extension for the upper flats. The rear gardens of the ground flats are balanced by the rooftop terraces.
