Classical building renovation

Jaffa House /Pitsou Kedem

According to my project, I have found out that there is an existing building appeared on the site. Therefore, I have an Idea to do something with the existing building such as making extension or connection part to it.

This is one of the examples for making renovation for the classic building and recreating both exterior through interior space. An over 100 years old house in Israel has been renovated by making combining the new and old style together. The interior functions were totally recreated without any references from the classical theories. Contrasting between existing stone wall and new materials creating the great combination of modernism rather than classical. Minimalistic construction style reflects ascetic style from the past that reminds me about there are some similarity inside the contrast.
