2006 Regional Award
Addition over $250,000

Maintaining the charm of this quaint colonial brick home was a prerequisite for this room addition. The clients wanted a large gathering space for family and friends, but desired to capture the same scale and intimacy of the current rooms. Throughout the process, the cilents emphasized their commitment to supporting a high level of craftsmanship above size. In fact, the addition's scope shifted from an overbearing two-story solution to a tightly executed single story addition. To maximize light into the original dining room, the family room was defined as a separate structure that is stitched to the house with a glass breezeway. This breezeway serves as a circulation zone that provides access to the basement, establishes an "open mudroom" at the entry, provides a more "public" bathroom solution and creates flexible space between the old and new where the family can serve food when entertaining.
