This remodel is for a family’s residence in a historical Edwardian two-unit building.

​Typical of this building style is the narrow, deep hallway with series of compartmentalized rooms.

​The design idea is to open up the kitchen toward the dining room, to create a central public space that is a hub of the family’s communication.

​To mitigate the lack of natural light, the existing ceiling also has been opened up to utilize the space underneath the pitched roof, and north-facing skylights are installed to bring in more brightness, which makes this space as a focal point from the entry of the house.
