Completed in 2014, San Lorenzo Residence 2 is a major transformation of a 1970s bungalow into a contemporary two-storey home that reflects the lifestyle of a young couple. Following a previous residential project in the same village, this renovation redefines simplicity through a modern minimalist design infused with Japanese-inspired elements that evoke calm and balance. The new master suite extension on the second floor complements the open, airy spaces below, where clean lines and a restrained palette of grays, blacks, and whites are softened by natural wood finishes. The result is a home that feels serene and inviting—minimal yet full of warmth and texture. A defining feature of the design is its zen-like atmosphere, enhanced by pocket gardens and koi ponds that connect indoor and outdoor spaces. These natural elements bring light, movement, and tranquility into the home, creating a perfect retreat within the city.
