stairwell The client’s brief was to extend the kitchen/dining room to the side to provide a generous and well-lit family space, and to add a loft bedroom and shower room to their 2-storey Victorian mid-terraced house. The project also includes thermal improvement of the rear addition envelope (insulation + render system and roof refurbishment), as well as restoration of the front facade and hard landscaping (patio) to the rear.

Hammer & Hand and architect Mitch Snyder transformed a hot, cramped, non-code-compliant attic space into a bright and functional master suite. The existing upstairs attic space had two small and hard-to-access bedrooms and a dangerous staircase. The team added a new dormer on the west side of the house which added an additional 195 square feet to the home. The new space includes a master bedroom, master bathroom with vanity and shower, separate water closet, laundry, walk-in master closet, and option to add a small bedroom (the space is currently being used as an open office area). Additional improvements to the home include an upgraded building envelope, insulation, high efficiency water heater, and minisplit heat pump. Photos by Mitchell Snyder Architecture.

This back living room makeover was for some of our favorite clients we've worked with before. They have excellent eclectic taste and are so fun to work with! They wanted to makeover their den that was right off the kitchen. They wanted to replace the back patio double door and adjacent windows with a wall of windows. This room was really hot in the summer and really cold in the winter, so proper insulation was a must! The ceiling had reoccurring cracks, that needed repair. We installed energy efficient windows and added insulation in the walls. We fixed the ceiling cracks and repaired it so it wouldn't happen again in the future. A sliding door was added to the drive way side, to mirror the other sliding door, where a window was before. Three large 7' x 6' windows were added along the back of the room, so the homeowners could enjoy their backyard from the comfort of inside their home. The wood beams added a nice contrast to the Benjamin Moore Mt. Rainier Gray paint. The homeowners picked out a really cool Thomas O'Brien 'Ziyi' lighting fixture that hangs above their kitchen table for an eclectic finish to this beautiful space.

Our client was working from home but didn’t have a dedicated space for focus and productivity. The goal was to create a comfortable backyard office while also adding an outdoor area to relax and recharge. We built a custom Stockton office shed, fully insulated and designed for everyday use as a real workspace. To enhance functionality, we added a covered deck that extends the living area outdoors - creating a seamless transition between work and relaxation. The covered section provides shade and protection, making the space usable throughout the day, while the deck adds a warm, inviting area for breaks or informal meetings. The result is a versatile backyard environment that combines a private office with a comfortable outdoor lounge - all just steps away from the main home.
