Czech design studio No Architects renovates and adds [new additions to a villa](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/villa-by-the-river) in Prague that was originally built in the 1920s. It is in a suburban community and is highlighted by bespoke joinery and contemporary details that are added to complement the original structure. This project was headed by artist Daniela Baráčková and architect Jakub Filip Novák

Jakub Filip Novák talks about the design to [Dezeen](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/provostry), stating that "Other [contemporary extensions](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/vatraa) in this neighborhood got very old very quickly and don't fit in well anymore. Our addition refers to the original facade details and is hardly recognizable as separate from the original house. The connection between the new and old parts is not just via design, but it seems seamless even by structure and same aging of the material."

## Key Themes

### What Makes This Trend Stand Out

- **Vintage Home Renovation:** Incorporating contemporary designs and details to complement the original structures of vintage homes poses an opportunity for designers and architects to give new life to old homes.
- **Seamless Integration of Additions:** Designing additions that are hardly recognizable as separate from the original house presents an opportunity for architects and designers to create a cohesive and harmonious living space.
- **Preservation of Original Facade Details:** Preserving and incorporating original facade details while designing modern additions presents an opportunity for designers and architects to balance preservation and modernization.

### Sectors Adopting This

- **Architecture:** The architecture industry can take advantage of the opportunity to create designs that seamlessly integrate modern additions while preserving the original facade details.
- **Interior Design:** The interior design industry can take advantage of the opportunity to add contemporary details to vintage homes while maintaining the original structure's charm.
