Front Facade, Entry Hall & Dining Room Renovation
Traditional Veranda, St Louis
The existing entry hall was narrow, and uninviting. The front porch was bland. The solution was to expand the entry hall out four feet with a two story piece that allowed for a new straight run of stairs, a larger foyer at the entry door with sidelights and a fanlight window above. A Palladian window was added at the stair landing with a window seat.. A new semi circular porch with a stone floor marks the main entry for the house.
Existing Dining Room bay had a low ceiling which separated it from the main room. We removed the old bay and added a taller rectangular bay window with engaged columns to complement the entry porch.
The new dining bay, front porch and new vertical brick element fit the scale of the large front facade and most importantly give it visual delight!
