Residence - Washington, D.C.







This property, located in upper Northwest Washington, DC, was renovated to accommodate a growing family. The owners desire was add a master bedroom suite, renovate an outdated kitchen and provide an outdoor entertaining area and connection to a landscaped rear yard area. Of major concern were the excessive costs associated with a 2-story addition to achieve the owner's increased space requirements. The design solution developed to increase the overall area of the house resulted in converting an existing cramped attic into a space including a full bathroom, closet and sleeping areas through the use of large scale roof dormers. The design details of the addition replicate the Arts and Crafts style of the original structure. Expansion of the kitchen into an existing exterior entry and pantry area resulted in doubling the size of the original space. A screened porch with a glass covered roof overlooks the rear yard and new terraced deck area.
