The overall shape of this colonial house in Palo Alto was barely modified, yet, in the words of Acadia Architecture principal, Davide Gianella, there's always the opportunity for originality in any adobe.
After all its original creation had probably good intentions.
The tension toward something better and more expressive is always already there, just dormant.
It is designers work to pull it out and make it spouse the spirit of the people who will enliven that
intensified space.
In this case, a stylized yet playful, joyful atmosphere is what the architect felt would better drape the cheerful family who would move in it.
