Modify this architectural elevation drawing of a historic ice house.

Keep the original façade almost untouched, including its symmetry, proportions and architectural details.

Apply a localized intervention only in the central axis of the façade main entrance area.

Intervention concept crystal / ice transformation
Create a gradual transition from solid brick to transparent glass bricks.
Start from the sides with original solid masonry.
Toward the center, gradually replace bricks with glass bricks same module and rhythm.
In the very center, create a fully transparent entrance made of glass.
Vertical transformation
At the bottom: more solid material brick
Toward the top: more transparent glass bricks → glass
The façade should appear as if it is dissolving or melting upward
Connection to roof
The transformation should continue upward and visually connect to the flowing roof canopy above
The façade should feel like it is transforming into the roof structure
Architectural logic
Keep the original rhythm and grid of the façade
Glass bricks should follow the same pattern as original masonry
The intervention must feel subtle, respectful and reversible
Entrance
The entrance should be:
transparent
minimal framing
visually open toward the interior and river beyond
Style
hand-drawn architectural sketch
loose tablet drawing
ink lines with light watercolor shading
visible sketch strokes
conceptual architectural intervention drawing
Important
do not redesign the whole building
modify only the central part
no text
no labels
no annotations, keep exact camera angle

PromptModify this architectural elevation drawing of a historic ice house.

Keep the original façade almost untouched, including its symmetry, proportions and architectural details.

Apply a localized intervention only in the central axis of the façade (main entrance area).
