AG House Renovation

The AG house is originally an old 2 floors house, that was built midcentury. After years and years of deterioration, the third-generation owner decided to restore the house and upgrade it, requiring the original structure to be conserved where possible.


Restoring the building structure required complex engineering work, to cut below floor slabs and build new foundations, new jacketing for columns, and new support for roof slabs. Almost all of the structural elements of the e=original building were conserved, and a while new structure was inserted without removing the existing ones.

On the deign level, the client requited the house to be restored to its original Lebanese look and feel, while utilizing it for more modern layout including open floor for living and dining areas, guest bedroom, maid quarters, and a large kitchen that opens directly to an elevated garden.


The upper floor included 4-bedroom suites, living area, study and a large terrace as well. The building original red tile roof is to be restored though on a larger scale.


Due to changing site condition, a new set of stairs contained within a double height pergola is introduced defining a grand entrance to the house, while offering a more private entry and exit for the residents. The pergola is sip sired by local grape trees that were planted on the original house.
