FELT reimagined a mid-century modernist bungalow for contemporary family life.
Our intervention adds a single, slender vertical element: a blue ceramic-tiled tower that untangles the circulation knot at the heart of the plan — where two horizontal slabs meet.
This little tower brings light and space to a new split-level staircase that ties the home together. The windows were renewed in rust-colored aluminium, echoing the original wood, complementing the tower’s deep blue hue and the surrounding greenery.
The original character and identity of the villa remain intact — yet a targeted, contemporary addition allows for both reinterpretation and renewed appreciation of its modernist ideas.
