Respecting Older Architecture
In many cases, a major design objective for building an addition is to be sympathetic to the original historic architectural style of the old building while employing modern construction techniques to meet contemporary standards for lifestyle, convenience, function, and safety. Even not-so-old styles of homes, like post-WWII ranch houses, "colonials," and multi-levels, often have an integrity that should be respected in order to achieve the right results.

While Creating New Open Spaces
Respecting historic styles does not mean being imitative or lacking creativity. Nor does it mean forgetting about generous, open spaces or high, vaulted ceilings.

Increasingly, homeowners are forced to choose between the neighborhood they love and the larger home they desperately need or want. Moving up should not always mean moving out! Even homes on small lots can frequently be expanded by employing some imagination and construction know-how. Does the home of your dreams include a master bathroom or home office? You might already be living there!
