Eric N. Rohlfing, ENR architectsA handy, empty-nester couple, nearing retirement, sold their mansion, and purchased a fixer-upper on a sunlit hillside that features the spectacular ocean view of the Channel Islands.
ENRarchitects was hired to assist with making minor enhancements to the plan, integrating the lower level parking court, and adding a patio deck. The owner, a retiring engineer, took on the responsibilities of general contracting during construction.
Our collaboration included opening the kitchen to the Living-Dining space, so all can enjoy the ocean view. A balcony was added to second floor Master Study, with a new laundry room below it. Both bathrooms were modestly enlarged to provide more spacious showers. Lastly, the Entry Foyer was opened to ceiling height into the Living Room.
In California, ocean views inherently include relentless west sunshine, and formidable interior heat gain. Multiple design studies explored various means to incorporate shading and solar screening measures to permit the view, and to reduce heat gain. Additional studies featured more substantial proposed additions, including a lower level guest suite, and a detached office.
A key feature, is the addition of a raised, covered entry porch, where passengers and goods can be offloaded, prior to parking on the lower level. The new porch also provides a secondary transition around the structure to the ocean view, split-level patio.
A 2nd phase included the suggestion of rebuilding the lower covered parking to include a roof deck, rooftop guest suite, and solar electricity, which was successfully completed. The property is now mildly reminiscent of the Sea Ranch community.
With the blessing of year-round comfortable weather, and ever-changing, dynamic views, the successfully remodeled home takes full advantage for a new generation of colorful living. (photo by owner)

Rochman Design BuildThe Rochman Design Build team transformed another garage into a gorgeous space. For this project, we tore down a detached garage of our clients’ Ann Arbor Hills home and built a new 2 story garage & Study addition. On the ground floor there is a 1 car garage plus an exercise room. The 2nd floor is a large study which will have custom bookcases, a vaulted ceiling, and lots of day light. We also built a patio on the back where our clients can have breakfast and entertain. The patio is
connected to the garage with beautiful brick pavers. There is a covered walkway between the house and the garage / Study. Following immediately with a 2nd project, Rochman Design Build moved from the garage and study addition on this Ann Arbor Hills colonial to the main house. This whole house remodel included doing a whole new kitchen, mudroom, powder room and butler’s pantry on the first floor. On the 2nd floor, we changed one entire side of the house into a large and beautiful study / office with a Juliette balcony, renovated the bathroom, and reconfigured the master bathroom including additional work in the remainder of the master suite.

Lurie Building DesignDesign work started with a modest design focused on improving the kitchen, living, dining and outdoor living areas. However, a feasibility study determined that a better option was to fully remodel the existing dwelling, resulting in reclaiming some of the front veranda to increase the size of the living and dining areas. The remaining section created an alcove to the main bedroom, increasing privacy and creating a dedicated outdoor area.
A large awning, cantilevered so as not to impose on the existing septic, created a separate outdoor living area. A teak facade, that will weather to grey in the salty sea air over time, was added to extend high above the box gutter, conceal the solar panels and cap the ends of the separation walls. The roof was repitched and the internal ceilings raked upwards from the teak facade, thereby increasing the internal volume and allowing for the addition of high-light windows in rooms on the ridge side of the dwelling to capture the vista, increase natural light, ventilation and sense of space.
A skillion roof outside the back kitchen area was strategically positioned out of sight from the inside of the home and created a second outdoor area in the rear courtyard, serving as the main entry point. A gate house was incorporated in the rear fence to enhance the entry. The rear courtyard reclaimed an existing parking bay to create space for the cellar/music room.

Faceted floating shelves and a built-in desk provide storage and negotiate the transition space between the old house and the new addition.

Robin's Nest InteriorsIroquois Park Addition: The Study is our next stop on the tour of this home. The Study is open to the Foyer and the first room you see as you enter. We wanted just a hint of the blue/green color from the other spaces on the wall so we painted them Frosty White (SW6196). We also had Kelly Sisler of Kelly Faux Creations work her magic on their white built-ins by painting them Software (SW7074) with a bronze glaze on top.
For furnishings, we worked with the homeowners’ writing desk and wrought iron bookcase and added a wingback chair in a gray flannel fabric in the corner. The finishing touches really make this space. We added an oversized colorful map and oversized clock to the walls. We accessorized the built-in with natural and stone items to pop off the gray. We used a fun garden stool as a side table for the chair.
For the window treatments, we installed drapery panels in an updated plaid fabric on medallions to frame the palladium window.
