The client wanted a dramatic entryway that would not overpower this single-story design, and the designer complied with this unique portico. On this beautiful wooded site, the organic nature of Arts and Crafts style influences the design, taking it to the next level with an eyebrow-shaped pediment that resembles an upscale earthen dwelling. The shallower curve of the transom echoes the roofline. Paired columns on stone piers, brick accents, and a wood ceiling complete the picture.
