Tardin-Pittet Villa + Office

The Swiss architects Tardin Pittet took a home that was built in the 1940s and did a little remodeling. The architects wanted to bring together work and family life but to do that they needed to remove the original roof and add a second floor for the office space. A wooden cladding was also mounted on top of the old facade to improve the thermal insulation as well.

Personally, I like the new structure compared to the old structure of the home. The home on the first floor has a unique and cozy feeling with the wood floors and the color choice of the interior. The office space is setup more industrial/minimal to give it a warm yet productive feel. I won't mind having an office like this one would you?
