rowhouse renovation.
The lightwell house is a renovation on a prewar rowhouse at the edge of brickwalled storage yards. It is formalized by a series of linked garden rooms which lead up to the formal entrance of the house: a brick floored dining room.
The lightwell house is a renovation on a budget. It is designed with a varied palette of gravel, concrete, glass, grass, brick and bougainvillea, morning light, utility kitchens, painted floors, steel posts and trees inside, surface wiring, natural ventilation and squirrels.
