A substantial addition and renovation completely transformed this house from a small Tudor to a modern residence that responds to its urban setting. An entry sequence of dramatic contrasts that alternately opens and constricts increases the perceived width of the interior. This same juxtaposition of expansion and contraction occurs vertically with low intimate ceilings punctuated by vertical shafts for daylight penetration and visual connection between the floors.
