Located on a
beautiful spacious lot on the outskirts of Corvallis, this residence
had turned its back on its surroundings. Access to the backyard was through either a side door on
the garage, or through a bathroom conviently located away from the
majority of the living spaces. In addition, the kitchen, dining, and
living rooms were all closed off from one another, giving the spaces a
very "enclosed" feel.
In our design, we also opened up the living, dining and
kitchen areas to one another enabling the spaces to share light, space,
and allowing seemless transitions from one area to the other.
Off of this integrated space, we provided direct access to
the backyard in addition to creating a spacious covered porch area to
enjoy on those relatively uncommon rainy days in the Willamette Valley.
In addition to opening up the floor plan & access to
the surroundings dramatically, we also added a second story over the
existing master bedroom suite. This addition gave the
client's children their own bedrooms, a bathroom and play area, all of
which we are sure will get put to good use.
