A modest 1950's villa in the village of Bergen 

proved to be so characteristic that it's new residents 

decided to renovate and extend it, rather than to 

demolish the house. The design of the BD House 

became a juxtapositional transformation in which 

the life of a young family, local cultural heritage, 

and the rich character of the landscape merged.
