This project from Weinstein-Friedlein Architects in Southwest Durham involves a cantilevered window seat addition in the dining room, new built in cabinets and bi-parting sliding doors between dining and kitchen, a new range hood from The Appliance Center and reconfigured island in kitchen, a new front door from Coastal Window & Door, and a new steel roof structure over the side entry door. The dining room is illuminated with a sweeping view of the front of the property and transitions formally into the kitchen with plenty of space for storage, creating a more elegant feel. The front door is more welcoming with natural light, and the new "Sealskin" paint from Hansell Painting pairs nicely with the dark brick tones and the new metal porch roof structure from Custom Steel. A truly delightful project to be apart of.
