Complete Addition

A little exterior painting is all that remains on this addition.

The addition tackled a tough site problem and a challenging blend of historically unique structural additions. The L-shaped lot wrapped around the neighboring parcel. The home’s previous additions were done with poor or absent foundations.

Now the addition affords space for a sorely needed back entry and mud room, a Master Bedroom, larger bedrooms, and two bathrooms. The kitchen will be remodeled in a subsequent phase; It will be a much more functional kitchen due to the space opened up by the expansion.

Home Design Process Illuminated

January 10th, 2007 by Peter Schmelzer

Construction

Concept

Planning

Our process walks our clients down a path, which these photos show in reverse.

The first photo is a recent construction shot. Next is a 3D computer image generated during the design phase. Last is a photo montage generated to show the design concept as part of an application for zoning variance.

The process starts with “What do we have?” and moves to “What do we want?” followed by “How do we get what we want?” Finally, we close out with “Yes, we have achieved our goals!”
