The Western half of a 1970's duplex requires a modern update and the addition of a spacious and light Entry Vestibule. The two-story home has clean horizontal lines and a low horizontal presence, hugging the hillside site that rolls down to the Gorge Waterway, that flows past the backyard. The roofline of the new Vestibule will pop up beyond the existing roof parapet, to capture the Southern and Western sunlight throughout the day. The new roof takes similar cues from the
existing parapet roof and will modernize the original lines of
the roof and the home. The existing Garage space at the front
of the home will be altered, and will separate a portion
of the space from the second half of the duplex, as well as new
garage doors. The Garage will also include a similar parapet-
style flat roof.
