Project type
Outdoor Living
The goal of this project was to create an outdoor porch for entertaining while creating heated garage space below. The homeowners also wanted to add this porch high above grade with unobstructed views of the lake and golf course below.
A new screen porch with a full terrace was designed so that an additional garage could be added below. Anytime heated interior space is designed below a flat terrace that is exposed to rain, special considerations and detailed steps are paramount.
To further complicate matters in this design, we had to create a waterproof method of attaching an open porch which is subject to wind uplift over a free span habitable space with no interior column support below. This level of painstaking detail was carefully planned and carried out through the entire building process, creating a one of a kind masterpiece.
