The project consists of three primary additions, one a workshop and garage, the second a basement expansion that juts out over the lake, and a third, which expands the existing living areas with a wall of glass. This third addition, originally not part of the project, was a recommendation by Architecture Office well received by the client because of how it transformed the existing living areas. The existing architecture consists of a historic neo-classical house with a less purist addition that attempts to mimic the original. We took the approach of contrasting the existing to avoid having two additions lacking the craft and integrity of the original. This contrast is a welcoming change to previously dark interiors. The concept opens up opportunities for capturing lake views, creating modern living areas that flow from one to the next. The rear garage and second floor workshop compliment the owners entrepreneurial spirit, a person who enjoys the act of a making. The form is simple but clearly delineates itself form the brick construction with black metal siding and a glass walkway connecting the two. The structure draws from old factory buildings that gather daylight from above, synthesized through a milky polycarbonate portion of roof. The basement addition expands on an existing subterranean space used for storage and utilities. This room is converted into a living space with sleeping quarters, wet bar, and restroom facilities. This living room is a mini oasis from the rest of the house with views secluded to the water and sky. The openness of the balcony expand the view in all directions, with the sun blocked under a cantilevered shade cover.

Using the tremendous ceiling height in this old shoe factory converted to loft apartments, we had plenty of space for a tall pantry and tons of additional storage above the refrigerator.

A converted print factory is now home to a young professional couple. Space was almost doubled with the installation of mezzanine levels in three main areas. Double height ceilings allows natural light to fill the interiors and use of pale colors bounces light around. A galley kitchen wraps around under the stairs.

This Asian inspired wall bed was custom built for a talented SW Portland painter and world traveler. The small room was converted from a home studio to a playroom for the grandchildren while doubling as a quest room when needed. Extra storage space and a hidden table to the right of the bed provide additional convertible play and work space.

My client needed storage for shoes, jackets, bags, mail and kids items. We made the most of the space by utilizing an area right inside the garage door and converting a reach in closet into two bench/storage areas. The two tone look adds dimension to the space while giving a clean custom design.

Designed to look like a real life race car, this sporty black car bed will have your child racing to bed. This highly durable twin bed comes with LED headlights, detailed gold rims and realistic racing stickers. Plus, the bed makes real car sounds and has a Knight Rider strobe light—all triggered by a wireless remote control.

I worked with a grandmother who wanted to convert a storage area into a Baby Room and Closet for her grandchildren. The walls were at an extreme pitch and the room had exposed duct work that we wanted to hide. The result is a space that works beautifully as a by room and will later convert to a closet. This project won the NARI Central VA Contractor of the Year Award in the Organization Remodel/Uplift Category. John Magor Photography
