English. English captions.
Here, the lives and stories of generations have been preserved in a contemporary structure. This is a new family home adjoining the ruins of the former home. The hearth and barn are incorporated into the design; rather than a renovation project, the ruins have been left intact. Old and new co-exist. Architect Ryan Kennihan tells us how he approached the project and worked with the owners, to incorporate their needs to reveal a new reading of site, heritage, and family.
