Family room Addition & Kitchen Remodel –
Rocklin, CA
The homeowners were in need of more space,
and had had enough of their narrow galley kitchen.
To keep the project in line with their budget, we
implemented a few cost-saving measures: first, we
kept the area of the existing house affected by
the remodel to a minimum: one exterior wall was
removed, and the new roof line was tied in seamlessly
with the existing; second, the kitchen was to remain
where it was, so that the moving of plumbing and
gas lines would be kept to a minimum. The kitchen
was remodeled, then, but not relocated, transformed
from a claustrophobic galley to a welcoming and
functional space, opened up to and oriented toward
the new family room. A vaulted ceiling with built-in
speakers and media cabinetry above the new gas fireplace
results in a spacious-feeling, uncluttered entertainment
room. Three walls of windows open to trees and a
woodland creek, with an angled wall for a simple
entry porch at the corner. The new room incorporates
the beauty of the outdoor space in its design, and
so further integrates the existing house with the
surrounding landscape; the result is a home where
the “living spaces” can be both indoors
and out, with a more unhindered flow between.
