Inspiration for a timeless basement remodel in Philadelphia

The clients wanted to update their ranch house and make good use of their unusually large site next to downtown Mountain View. We sketched several options for design and scope of work to assess feasibility and value to the clients. The chosen design retains an existing bedroom wing, while the layout of the living spaces is re-worked to an open plan flooded with light, with vaulted ceilings and strong indoor-outdoor connection to a yard optimized for outdoor living. Awkward angles and inefficient spaces of the former house have been replaced with a clear, simple floor plan designed for ease of everyday living. One end of the site is used for a two-bedroom ADU (Accessory Dwelling Unit) with its own face to the street and its own back yard. Income from the ADU will go a long way toward financing the rebuild of the main house. Photography: Kurt Manley https://saikleyarchitects.com/portfolio/open-ranch-adu/

If we want to be honest with ourselves, we have to admit that buying new furniture has never been an easy task or something that you do with a snap of your fingers (unless you're a millionaire, that is). It has always been a somewhat tiring (albeit exciting) and a definitely complicated affair that affected both our finances and our household for some time. Especially when you're not thinkiing in the categories of buying the so called disposable furniture that costs very little, but also lasts very little. When you want real furniture, you have to pay a little more. What you might not know though, that it is not as much as many stores and sellers would like to tell you. You can get perfectly good, stylish and comfortable furniture straight from us. Our mission is to bring great quality into everything we do. We want to invade every home and we make our prices affordable. Our furniture is made of synthetic rattan and other very solid, durable material, which combined – give a really stunning effect. In our stores you'll find everything from sofas to dining sets. This way you can certainly fix more than just your patio as our furniture fits nicely both in the exteriors and interiors.

Whether you know exactly what you want from the start or need us to ask the right questions to settle on something, our first goal is to listen. Then, we work with the land and your budget to bring it all to life. Types of Fencing Cedar Chain Link Steel What to Expect with a Fencing Project: We will ask you questions about materials, fence height, whether you have a sloped hill, and what types of finish work you want. This could range from a standard cedar fence to a lattice top horizontal fence with post caps and a top plate for squirrels to run along. Some areas in Oregon have harder clay soil, so we incorporate steel posts to stabilize cedar fences without compromising appearance. Ultimately, we work with any vision that you have in mind, and we will try to address your biggest concerns while keeping the landscape in mind. If your fence is falling or broken, a fix may be a temporary solution until you can budget for a replacement. A lot of fences won’t last even once they’re repaired, so consider whether a repair is worth the investment. Financing options are available. We offer an active military and veterans discount as a way to say thank you for your service. We invite you to visit our website to learn more
