Courtyard addition to a small gable roof house.


This addition completely enveloped a small 1950's inner city bungalow. All that remained was the small gable end on the left side. The owners wanted to use every available square foot of build-able space on a small lot, and include a pool, spa studio, roof deck and garage accessed from a back alley. The idea was to create a modern, personal resort, for what they referred to as a "permanent vacation". The final configuration did not include the spa as shown, but separated it on a slightly elevated stone paved platform, just off the bedroom. It was 7' square when complete and a much better fit than the one shown.
