House Expansion


The owner of a square house wishes to double the size of the dwelling but wants to maintain the square shape. As can be seen in the diagram there are 4 trees, one at each corner of the house. The owner does not wish to remove or shift the trees and doesn't want to build a second storey or a basement.


How does the owner achieve the expansion?
