One of the first and most significant decisions that must be made when planning for a 2nd Story project is the location of the stairway.
In a perfect world the stairway should be as close to the front entry door as is feasible.
When possible we seek to locate the stairway outside of the existing footprint and incorporate it into the new construction so the new stairway does not block light, or worse, totally dominate a room in the existing footprint.
Another key issue is the insertion of an architectural "eyebrow" where existing first and new 2nd story merge.

Many times a home can be made to feel larger and more spacious by removing interior walls and or relocating kitchens and bathrooms.
Some walls are not load bearing and their removal is seamless.
However, even if Greyhound General encounters a bearing wall, provisions can be made to deal with structural issues, and we can still remove all or part of a wall so that your master plan and new design can be realized.
In some cases two story homes have large great rooms with very high ceilings.
These homes are often eligible to be able to add a "loft" within the footprint of the existing floor plan.
