The Hojnoski Renovation: The Beginning

The Hojnoski's came to us after having agonized over whether to tear down the existing A-frame 70's style homeor create a renovation that would meet their living space needs while keeping the exterior aesthetically pleasing. The challenge was to add another A-frame section or add something completely different in style that would blend with the large A-frame section. After a couple of tries it was clear that staying with the main style of the house, splitting the new A-frame with a connector, and flowing with the various grades surrounding the house would be the most sensible design. The existing A-frame section would be opened up inside and encompass living/family room and the loft above the front half remain. The connector to the new A-frame section would encompass a new stairway, entry, and new kitchen that would open to a dining/family room area in the existing A-frame section. The entry/stair portion would open above to a second floor loft that would connect with the existing loft above. The new A-frame section would start with a 2-car garage "down under", a master suite, study and laundry area on the first floor and two bedrooms and bath on the second floor.
