Two years ago, I needed a bit more space as art was taking over every room in the house. What would be the best solution: rental space, better organization, moving? A home addition seemed intimidating, but this is the option I chose. Hear about first concept ideas, plans, building process, overcoming problems, and finish. Learn design choices, and details (such as windows, flooring, and interior lighting) that could transform your own space.
Project flow: 1) Budget/lifestyle choices 2) Wants/needs 3) Select Contractor & choose design 4) Construction 5) Finishing details
