7,000 sf / 4-units

Nashville, TN (Germantown)

With a strong desire to preserve and renew a historic property, the client asked to mindfully design a 4-unit residential complex embracing the existing triple-wyeth structure with a clean open addition to the rear.  The street presence is maintained by following the existing roof lines but allows for open-air entrances as well along the side and rear.  A structurally complex but spatially simple solution made this project a success.
