A previous stair near the front door was relocated to create a more generous entry hall. The new stair is designed as a connection between the existing residence and the new addition. Eight skylight/laylights and a glass-block wall allow this stair to light the center of the new floor plan. Photo by Alan Karchner

This is a photo of the three part archway leading into the two story great room.....Originally this was just a large opening. By adding this assembly, we created order and presented a beautiful entry feature, announcing that you are walking into a special space. The knee wall arches allow for an open feel and of course match all of the other millwork details throughout the first floor. The cabinet seen through the archway is the great room oversized TV unit, with storage left & right side.
