PROJECT: Architecture & Construction
DESCRIPTION: Residential Renovation/Remodel

“Wouldn’t it be great to add on to the kitchen and make a bigger, brighter, open space?”  It sure was great in this traditional home that needed just a bit more floor space to let the sun shine in and create a welcoming family gathering space.  Rearranging the kitchen layout allowed the addition of a much-needed office nook and maximized storage space.  An underutilized screen porch was converted to a sunny four-season room in order to add usable space without adding on to the home. The color palette is bright, yet warm and the materials echo that approach; the ceiling of the addition is clad in white-rinsed wood and the former exterior wall has been left exposed and painted adding an unexpected texture to the modern dining area.

We created a little bigger footprint and lot more space to live in.
