W Residence
This project was featured in the Star Tribune Every Day Solutions. The exiting 3 season front porch was never utilized, and the couple needed a home office. The 1914 house did not have a front entry space for the numerous guests the couple usually hosted, so a bench with storage bins and front closet was designed. The other 2/3rds of the space was the 64 square foot office, desks custom built with the lumber that was removed from the existing porch. A creative solution to have a “Front Porch” feel was to make a series of platforms as the steps for places to perch while momma gardens and for planters to sit.
