Barker Residence

Raleigh, NC
3000 SF


Located in Five Points near downtown Raleigh, NC this addition and renovation provides a unique response to a typical building problem in this area. Instead of demolishing the existing house or adding a second story, the addition was added at the rear of the existing structure, separated by a new main entry courtyard. This approach allows for an extremely efficient use of space, allowing the smaller existing bedrooms and spaces to be used as guest spaces and the new construction to be as large and open as possible, while taking advantage of a connection to outdoor spaces at the rear of the lot. The material palette remains in keeping with the texture of the neighborhood, while the execution and form make a decidedly modern statement.
