A small entry addition for my parents vacation house in the Tahoe Area was the first project that I completed on my own time. The house was L-shaped with the original entry at the crux of the L; a good distance from the road. In the winter, getting to the door was a challenge! The end of the leg that was closest to the street was octagonal. Designing a compatible addition to this marvelously angled construction tested my geometry skills. Another obstacle was a Giant Sequoia growing close to where we wanted to build. With some research and careful construction techniques this beautiful tree continues to thrive years later, much to my joy.
