The Boyle Residence
Scope: New Foyer, New Front Porch, New Side Porch
Challenges: Designing the new foyer floor even with the existing floor, while providing enough roof height for the porch. In addition, I needed to account for providing required clearances around existing second floor windows. Because I had taken accurate measurements to start the project, I was able to juggle all of the challenges and develop a beautiful design that required very little adjustment during construction.
Outcome: An aesthetically beautiful home that fulfilled all of the clients dreams.
