We proposed two options for the project, with the main difference between the two, concentrated on the spatial arrangement of the kitchen. The first option creates an open space that connects the kitchen, dining room, and living room, of which the dining room can hold up to 12 persons with an expandable table. The second option still maintains a sort of separation between the kitchen area and the dining area. Both options fulfil the request of the client, whereas the first option has more budget for demolition and reconstruction, but have a larger open space. More detailed descriptions of both options can be seen in the floorplans proposal.
Both options also provide a light dining area near the kitchen for short/fast breakfasts and a comfortable living room for the family. A workstation is also inserted in the new design.
