Bromley Caldari Architects, a New York City based studio, have completed a renovation work called the A-Frame Rethink project. Basically, they were tasked with completely transforming an A-frame home dating back from the 1960s.

Located on the Fire Island in New York, the old house had nothing more than a tight spiraling staircase, 4 dark and demolished bedrooms, a worn-out pile foundation and a leaky roof. In order to transform it into a modern A-frame residence, the architects had some serious work to do, the old home required a lot of renovations.

They managed to transform the old, dark interior of this home int o a modern and welcoming light-filled residence by simply redesigning the spiral staircase that was blocking the sunlight and the views. Of course that is not all that they did but the new staircase positively transformed the entire layout of the house and made space for a pair of new bay windows that deliver natural light throughout the entire residence during the day.
Skylights, as well as the other windows are staggered at the various elevations on each part of the building only to be linked by a catwalk balcony in front of the master bedroom.

The modern interior is enhanced by the natural light as well as the views of the outside but once you step outside, there’s an expansive wooden deck with a swimming pool right in the middle of it which is an addition that made this 2,340 sq ft home a true luxury modern residence.
