Client Goals & Needs

  • Completely renovate a unique home instead of relocating to a new area
  • Update the exterior to a modern craftsman style with coastal vibes, bold colors, and textures
  • Reimagine the first floor to improve layout, flow, and natural light for everyday living and entertaining
  • Remodel the basement into one large, cozy, multi-functional entertaining space

Design Challenges

  • Exterior: Outdated, plain, builder-grade appearance needing visual interest and architectural personality
  • First Floor (Den, Mudroom, Office, Primary Suite, Foyer): Compartmentalized, fragmented layout requiring reconfiguration to allow natural light and ease of movement
  • Basement: Many small rooms needed to be combined into a large space, requiring removal of load-bearing walls and installation of a separate secondary HVAC system
