Simple in form and elegant in scale, the limits of a traditional two-story Philadelphia rowhouse are put on notice. The street facing elevation supports historical context and existing neighborhood fabric. The opposite, however, is celebrated with a 'party in the back'. Jogs in the planning and folds in the roof carve out nooks and crannies on all floors including garden and terrace levels. If you squint hard enough into the setting sun you might trick yourself into thinking you're holding a cocktail somewhere in Key West. If mullets are back in fashion then this is the architecture equivalent.
