This project has caused me sleepless nights, frankly. I am all for a design that respects and even sometimes challenges context.
I'm of the mind that sometimes stronger material counterpoints & contrasts actually reinforce design. I came across this brick building
that illustrates what I'm trying to get at.

It's not meant to represent "this should take the place of that", but certain architectural moves help fortify design, and refine it.
This was actually a home built in 1920, but the idea of inserting the new elements like this is scale-less, and applicable to any
size IMHO.
