Travertine laid, joinery fitted, the stone wall and the original shutters kept: new and old answer each other in the same room.

The corner glazing seen from the balcony, aligned on the original shutters we kept.
3/7
Fully glazed corner, dressed stone surround and a tiled génoise cornice: the new work reads as though it had always been there.
4/7
New beams bedded against the stone wall: the extension leans on the old building without altering it.
5/7
Roof covering stripped and a steel frame set on the existing roof structure, which was kept.
