You may have noticed the trend in recent years has been to demolish existing homes to make room for mega-mansions, built to fill the lot.  While there are cases where older homes are not salvageable, often the home can be saved, remodeled, and added on to, creating an entirely new home at a fraction of the cost of new construction.

As undeveloped lots become scarcer in the mountains and construction costs rise, clients increasingly seek out our services for addition and remodel projects.  With strategic design choices, we can achieve our clients’ goals without sacrificing the existing structure.  The end result not only looks like a new home, it also performs like a new home, with improvements to insulation, mechanical systems, appliances, and even spatial layouts and circulation.
Whether it’s a full remodel down to the studs or a stand-alone addition that connects to the existing house with minimal impact, you will get more home for your buck if you keep the existing structure.  This strategy also reduces environmental impacts and waste.  Each addition remodel is a unique design opportunity.  Relying on our years of experience and a rigorous approach to working through challenging problems, we find the best way to achieve your goals within your budget.  The end result is a distinctive design that many assume is a completely new home.
If you are looking to expand your home for a growing family or simply want to remodel your space for modern aesthetics and performance, contact us today!
