Approach
Some of the best projects start with a house that's almost right. I like reworking what's there — opening a dark floor plan to the light, adding the room you've always needed, honoring an old Craftsman while bringing it into this century. The hard part is knowing what to keep. I draw existing and proposed together so you can see exactly what changes and what stays.
What this includes
- Honor what's there — Keep the character worth keeping; change what doesn't serve you.
- Additions that belong — New work that reads as part of the house, not a bolt-on.
- Light and flow — Most renovations are really about light and how you move through the house.

Common questions
- Can you match my house's style?
- Yes — blending old and new is most of what renovation is. I'll match what matters and modernize what doesn't.
