Transforming a Boring Colonial Home with a Modern Addition

Just a fun little exercise of taking a boring 1980's colonial and transforming it with a modern addition.

We thought we' d have many out of state visitors. We had four in 11 years. Im utilizing the third bedroom in the smaller home, as a guest bedroom/foldable exercise bike / screen divider where I hide storage paper goods, detergent, soaps etc.The other bedroom is used as a den & office. It really is plenty of space because the time spent for each activity is minimal.

    • @n3architecture
      @n3architecture Місяць тому

      Not when you have a decent idea on what that cost is. I only use in the very early stages of a project to set or confirm the size based upon the clients budget. If a client comes to me and says they want to build a 5000 sf house and their budget is $950k and I know the average cost per SF is around $300 then they are way off and need to either reduce size or increase budget.

      @@Scott-rf5ux I haven't personally seen that large of a gap in the same street, or most often even the same town. When I first start working with a client and knowing if it is a more or less expensive area and through multiple conversations with them - discovering what they want in a the house in terms of style, structure, finishes, mechanical, I can get a decent sense of what the cost per square foot will be. Again this is not intended to be exact, but just a starting point for the initial conceptual design and setting the approximate size of the house. After the schematic design work is to a point where the homeowner is satisfied (but not too far out that changes can't be made) I always recommend they bring in a contractor for preconstruction services, to provide a more detailed budget number which will then get refined as the project moves forward.

    Great video. We were literally designing a floor plan last night for a new build and we spent hours trying to make the bathroom location work so it is tucked away. Also, appreciate you talking about the light. My husband has an app that shows the sun’s path so when we are looking at lots we can see the exposure to various rooms. I agreed 100 percent about the messy roof lines. It seems as we drive around and look at new construction the roof lines have gone crazy. We like some peaks, but generally the classic roof lines look best. We will need to hire an architect but for now we are using floor plan software to get our ideas/desires in place. PS. I didn’t even notice the music. I was focused on the content.

    • @n3architecture
      @n3architecture 2 місяці тому

      Thanks for your kind words and I would suggest that if you plan on hiring an architect, don't go too far down the path of using a floor plan software - I often see people get too fixated on one thing or another and they put the blinders up, and might miss out on opportunities that they didn't even consider. Instead spend your time documenting how you and your family live in your home - your daily, weekly, yearly routines. Things you like and things you don't like, be specific. Gather some inspirational images, but don't go overboard with that either, write down what it is you like about an image

    Your videos are great! I've been really zeroing in on #5 - the home in relation to the sun. Its tough finding home styles that do this well when the home faces the street to the east. I'm in the northeast. Optimal sun for heating (and joy) means the widest part of the house runs from front to back in my case to capture all the southern sun during winter, south is the side of the house. Particulalry with a roof that gives southern exposure for solar. I've been lookjng at traditional 2 story styles that have the gable in the front, (so you have southern roof exposure) with the garage roof line perpendicular. Curious of you have any go to examples for a house that makes good use of the sun when it has an east facing street.

    • @n3architecture
      @n3architecture 2 місяці тому

      Here are some things I would consider: 1.) Do you want your primary bedroom to receive morning sunlight or do you prefer to sleep later and have the room be darker? I would probably locate the primary bedroom on the north side of the house in this situation either way - but you can control the light by having more or less windows on the side that faces east vs. west (or north) 2.) What spaces do you want the most daylight in? Locate those on the south end of the house if you plan it correctly (and if you want an open kitchen / living / dining - you could have that entire space be open and have windows on the east, south and west. 3.) Use overhangs to control / block the summer sun vs. letting the winter sun into the space 4.) Garage and any other space where light isn't a priority I would locate to the north side of the house 5.) Proximity to neighbors on the south side. If daylight, and privacy are important to you, a conventional house that looks like everyone else's might not be the best route. There are many ways to configure a house and they don't all need to be boxes with front door facing the street and the sides being windowless walls. (not saying you are doing this) Where in the Northeast are you located? I am in MA and my projects are pretty spread out - feel free to contact me www.n3architecture.com/get-started

That bedroom might look perfectly adequate for a five year old now, but in twenty five years when that five year old is thirty and has a kid of their own but they and their partner and kid are still living with you because you're disabled and they're your carer, is that bedroom still going to be adequate to their needs?

    Hi Chris, I just stumbled upon your channel and I’m amazed by the quality of your site analysis. I’m currently studying architecture myself, and just like you I like to use procreate in the beginning of a project. I was wondering if you have any templates, or props that you regularly use (sunpath for example)? I also think that a dedicated video on your workflow using procreate would provide value to a lot of people trying to improve their digital drawings. (I also linked up with you on linked in to follow your projects ;) Either way, big thanks for the amazing video! Greetings from Germany Dominik 👋🏼

      Thanks, I generally try not to publish information on pricing because it can change over time and also varies so much by where the work is taking place. (Example this renovation in California would probably cost 2x than if it was in Ohio) I guess I could have added that at this date, in this location the anticipated cost would be within this range. I'll plan on doing more of these types of quick designs so next time I will include some budget pricing.
