  • New sloped roof (4/12) with shingles
  • Facia a combination of raw aluminum and matching finished aluminum to existing windows
  • House footprint unchanged
  • Materials used (all materials low to no maintenence): Corten Rustwall, poured concrete, reclaimed barnboard, existing brick (repaired)
  • Angel stone ledger for existing brick
  • New windows on front (3) and east side (3)
  • New front door
  • Minimal landscaping other than removal of existing trees at front and replace with one large size deciduous tree

  • Fake prefab balcony for back upper patio door for now
  • New modern garage door (aluminum frame with finished aluminum inserts to match existing windows)
