A Growing Family Needs More Space to Entertain and Relax

A growing family in Marietta, GA was looking to expand their home with an additional living space to accommodate their love for hosting and family activities. They envisioned a space where they could gather as a family, entertain guests, and create areas for both children and adults to enjoy. The goal was to have a game space for the kids and a sophisticated adult area featuring a bar and wine cooler, making it perfect for both family bonding and hosting guests.

Their original plan was to add a porch cover with an outdoor kitchen, but after thoughtful discussion about the space’s intended use, they decided to shift their vision toward a more versatile and year-round solution—a spacious sunroom addition. The existing porch cover had been small and seasonal, so the new design aimed to offer more than just a warm-weather retreat. The sunroom would become a 4-season room with proper heating and cooling, enabling the family to enjoy it year-round.

Collaborating to Design a Year-Round Sunroom for Every Season

In June 2023, we first walked the property and discussed the client’s vision, identifying the need for a flexible space that could meet both the family's daily needs and their desire to entertain. After the initial consultation, the client took some time to refine their plans, revisiting the design in Spring 2024 when they were ready to move forward.

Together, we explored the possibilities of the space, moving from the original porch cover idea to the sunroom addition that would better serve the family’s long-term needs. We also discussed key details like insulation and climate control options, recommending a split unit system for both heating and air conditioning, ensuring the room would be comfortable year-round.

Matching the Home’s Aesthetic with Quality Design Elements

For this sunroom addition, we focused on a design that seamlessly matched the existing style of the home, both in aesthetic and functionality. Key features included:

• James Hardie Siding: For durability and visual consistency with the home’s original exterior.

• Pella 250 Series Windows: Chosen for their energy efficiency and sleek look, making the sunroom an inviting and comfortable space.

• Techo Bloc Outdoor Pavers: Used to extend the patio area, creating a beautiful and durable outdoor space.

• Landmark Ceramic Tile: The beautiful tile floor enhances the sunroom’s aesthetic while also offering easy maintenance and longevity.

• Wooden Beams & Kitchenette: The inclusion of wooden beams creates a cozy, rustic charm, while the kitchenette provides a functional space for hosting.

How We Overcame Installation Hurdles to Create the Ideal Home Addition

As with many construction projects, we faced delays due to weather conditions and material shortages. Despite these challenges, our team remained flexible and worked tirelessly to maintain open communication and minimize any disruptions. The project was completed on schedule, and the final result was exactly what the client had envisioned—an exquisite and functional space that effortlessly blended with the home’s existing design.

Creating a Perfect Extension to the Home with Careful Design

What sets this project apart is the seamless integration of the sunroom with the existing home. From the matching roofing and siding to the thoughtful placement of windows, every detail was carefully considered to ensure that the sunroom feels like a natural extension of the home, not an afterthought.

The tile floor, wooden beams, and kitchenette were all design elements that contributed to creating a space that is both inviting and functional. The family now enjoys their sunroom daily, whether for family gatherings, quiet moments, or entertaining friends.
