Improper Renovation of A Neo-Romanian Style House

An example of improper renovation of a Neo-Romanian style house: the old ceramic tile roof together with its peculiar roof ornaments and finials have been replaced with characterless corrugated metal sheets, which seal the loft off, not allowing the building to breathe and further damaging it.

I endeavor through this daily image series to inspire appreciation of the historic houses of Romania, a virtually undiscovered, but fascinating chapter of European architectural heritage.

If you plan acquiring a historic property in Romania or start a renovation project, I would be delighted to advice you in locating the property, specialist research, planning permissions, restoration project management, etc. To discuss your particular plan please see my contact details in the Contact page of this weblog.
