Stairway from Heaven
These clients added a great second story to their home but ended up with a stairway awkwardly coming out from the wall.
Before
After
Challenge:
This family added an upstairs bonus room to their existing home resulting in an awkward and poorly planned staircase. It landed in what was once a dining room the family never used, but now the room had no purpose.
Goals:
To add value to the home by redefining the space as a useable asset and to make the staircase look like it had always been a part of the home.
Solution:
I designed a cabinet and shelving system which defines the space as a seating area and turns what was an eyesore, into a beautiful architectural feature. It is now the wife's favorite place to have a cup of coffee in the morning and use her laptop!
