Can you believe that the ‘Echo House’ by Kariouk Associate was once a Victorian-styled house located in Ottawa, Canada? I can’t believe it either. From the pictures above, I would have guessed that this home was built in the 21st century or so. I guess the name ‘Echo House’ was perfect since this house does have some “echos of the past” elements lingering.
Above in the gallery, there is an outline of the old house and there is also the outline of the new updated house. When looking at the pictures of the ‘Echo House’ by Kariouk Associate, would you think that this house was a Victorian house?
