Project 1: Rural Farmhouse
Existing House - Saddlebag
Design Development
From the beginning I knew that I wanted to respect the original house as much as I could while still making it modern and usable. I decided to add extensions to the sides of the house while keeping the saddlebag as the main entrance to pull focus toward the original house. Further along the design I added a garage to even both sides out to look more appealing.
Final Drawings and Model
When I started my final drawings i was still making changes like adding more square footage to the master bedroom and bath. I printed the original floor plan and elevations I made in AutoCad and drew the extensions by drafting. The study model was a challenge but it conveys the overall idea of the house well.
