This thoughtful renovation embraces the imperfections of a 1960s ranch-style home, honoring its history through the Japanese philosophy of Kintsugi. Subtle modern interventions—like generous glazing and minimal additions—highlight original details rather than erase them, creating a home where past and present coexist beautifully. A limited footprint and modest ceilings became design opportunities rather than constraints. The result is a serene, light-filled space rooted in reverence and restraint.
