ADDITIONS

Challenge

This private home nestled in the woods had a back deck that attracted mosquitoes at night and cooled to a temperature that was uncomfortable to enjoy.

They wanted to convert the deck into a four season sunroom addition while keeping the existing foundation windows and chimney. It was also important for the addition to blend seamlessly with the rest of their home.

Solution

Working with a structural engineer, we preserved our client’s brick chimney using post footings, and installed Trex decking. Incorporating natural light into the design plan, the new Mon-Ray high performance aluminum windows were chosen purposefully to allow cool air to circulate during warm summer nights, and lock in the heat during cool spring or winter evenings.
