Challenge: A small 1940 home needing a 2nd floor master suite addition, office, & green roof deck. The owners love the original house, but needed additional luxury & leisure spaces for retirement.
Outcome: A long slotted renovation & addition was created stretching from the existing master bedroom. Light floods the new master suite w/ floor-to-ceiling glass & other complimentary new windows. A clean white minimalism was applied to assimilate w/ the sunroom & become a quiet, but sleek addition; while allowing the home’s original architectural vernacular to remain in tact.
Sustainability:
This project has quite a few sustainable elements. James Hardie, fiber cement panels & trim were utilized in this project, which have a very long life span w/ little to no maintenance. Low VOC paints were used throughout the home as well as LED bulbs. Two new eco-flush toilets were also installed for the project. Trex planks for the roof deck were implemented as well. Lastly, double pane, low-E windows w/ argon were used for the whole project.
