A repeat client wanted to extend his living, entertaining, and dining space with a large back-porch addition and turned to us once again. Collaborating with the architect, we conjured up a conditioned, all-season porch he can use year-round.
We helped the client navigate the design-build journey and guided him through the process of selecting materials, finishes, and other porch components. Walls of custom windows, fitted with sturdy screens that stand up to wear and tear from the owner’s mastiff, provide an indoor-outdoor feel. Architectural details—from the vaulted, wood-lined ceiling to the stacked-stone fireplace—add rich character. We sourced durable yet stylish furniture and rugs for the seating and dining zones.
Our client enjoys his multi-tasking porch, whether he’s watching a big game on the outdoor TV or hosting a casual dinner party for friends.
“I have used Andrea for multiple projects including complete interior design of the first floor and building a screened in porch. Andrea is awesome at working with your likes and dislikes and does an amazing job at coming up with suggestions to improve your space.
I really appreciate her communication skills and was exceptional responsive to my needs… I highly recommend!”
