Artistic Expression



This artistic and active family needed more space but wanted something more than a "shoebox" addition. Redhouse created a vibrant and light filled second story that is integrated into the existing architecture. Rather than detracting from the original, this addition adds charm and character to the facade of the house.

Here only traveling salesmen and strangers use the front door; Friends and family come through the side door. The new stairwell was located in the functional and welcoming family entry.
