HOUSE RENOVATION

A 1970s building in Wrocław's Krzyki district was in very poor condition.

Front of the renovated house in Krzyki — a white volume with dark panels around the upper-floor windows, a timber-clad entrance surround, and a low masonry fence with a hedge.

A 1970s building in Wrocław’s Krzyki district was in very poor condition. A thoughtful renovation and a small extension on the garden side gave the house a new lease on life. Simple, subtle architectural moves let the building blend into its existing surroundings without disturbing the established urban fabric, while giving the whole space a contemporary character.

Side view of the renovated house — a white facade with an anthracite plinth, a timber entrance box, concrete steps, and a hedge along the pavement. Garden facade of the house with louvered windows, a timber-clad bay window, and a garden with a lawn, boxwoods, and young trees. Street-facing front of the house with the address plate 37a, a timber-clad entrance surround, concrete steps, and a birch branch in the foreground. Close-up of the house entrance — the timber-clad vestibule contrasting with the anthracite facade, concrete step treads, and climbing plants at the foundation.
