The architectural changes to the house have transformed the way the house feels and functions. While there was great beauty in the details of the original house, it was dark and largely cut off to light and air. The upper level in particular was completely dysfunctional. The two butterfly roofs on this upper level have been transformational by acting as portals of light and air. Added to this the many opening “flaps” that open and close enable the spaces to feel either very open or closed. The house has become exciting to inhabit and a delight to live in.
