The famous "Round House" located on the hill near Silicon Valley, California, has been completely renovated by the Feldman Architecture office.

The residence is located in Los Altos Hills and borders a protected area. It was completed in the 1960s and spans in a total area of ​​474 square meters.

When a couple with two children bought the Round House - the architect who designed it is unknown - they did not know exactly what it meant to renovate the property.

"Customers fell in love with this bizarre circular home and initially planned a limited remodel," said the architects from the San Francisco-based office. "Shortly after they settled there, the couple realized the inadequacies of their new home. Our team began to create a whole respectable enrichment of the original form of the house ".

According to deezen.com, the walls and ceiling were rebuilt and the exterior was re-covered with thermally aged accoya wood. Changes were made to the floor plan, including the reciprocal change of areas between the master bedroom and the common areas.
