Montmorency Residence: A Renovated House by Francesca De Marchi

A dwelling built in 1910 and updated to suit a modern lifestyle, located in Montmorency, France. This Montmorency Residence was re-designed by Francesca De Marchi of Paris-based NIM Architecture to include a contemporary improver that rendered the family living here with a amalgamation of old and new on their new property. Determining to buy their first home, the young couple and their three children ended up loving a renovated house, as well as a contemporary addition assembled on a 1,000 square metre property. With a southeast orientation and placed on a slimly sloped land, the residence spotted on Muuuz missed comfortable light-flooded social spaces, so this white volumetric adherence was designed to shelter the kitchen, dining room and lounge. Built within the limits marked by urban regulations, this propagation showcases a green roof underneath which across the usage of glazing allows sunlight to penetrate deep into the interiors. Privacy was got by focusing transparency off from neighboring houses and creating a family-friendly surround complete with terrace and a green lawn.
