Wedge House

The Wedge house project is an addition and interior renovation of an existing bungalow built in the 1970s.
The client approached us looking to build a second floor addition to their existing house and exanding their ground floor living space.
The massing of the house was derived from working within the boundaries of the West Vancouver bylaws while maximizing the GFA.

A large roof over the rear of the addition protects the ground floor balcony from the rain, acts as a privacy skirt for the upper floor bedroom and bathroom and helps diminish the overall mass of the addition.
