  1. I'm looking for a designer that could help with a home addition.  I'm located in southeast Kansas, outside of Fredonia.  This plans are not for city or county use.  Owner use only. 

     

    We bought "Delaware Springs", a historic property known by Indians and early settlers for it's healthy spring water.  It has a basic 2-bedroom house.  We want to add a master addition with a little character.  The property lends itself for a two level addition (see picture).  Think "walk-out basement", but the lower level will mostly be exposed.  We will also be renovating/adding to the kitchen. 

     

    It's probably not 100% necessary, but I think a site visit would help.  Our goal is to design a house that fits the property and suits our needs.  

     

    Message Jorlan or call 620 212-0501 if you are interested.

  2. Hello!

    I'm seeking a designer to complete my new construction house design.  I rented Chief software over the winter so I could help my wife visualize the house we are budgeting for.  I am very happy with my results, but Spring is here and I'm too busy to finish.  I'd like a professional to complete the problematic areas and maybe add some curb-appeal. Aside from making myself comfortable with the design of the house, my end-goal would be to develop a plan from which I can perform some take-offs and render a framing plan to take to a truss company and a local framer.  I am very reasonable to work with. I need a verbal quote on the to-do list.  Wish-list will depend on remaining budget. 

     

    To-do!

    -Add high 14' ceiling in the living area. The roof raises when I add ceiling.

    -Add high windows in living areas.  Clean up all windows (size, height).  I'm pretty window-design stupid. 

    -Clean-up wall heights, floor thicknesses. 

    -Add columns at porches.

    -Add veneer to front of house and columns.

    -Exterior design- dormers, siding, roof options or maybe some craftsman-style details. Maybe an accent wall section on the outside of the pantry area.

     

    Wish-List!

    -Provide some design options for cabinets.

    -Hydronic floor heat in an elevated concrete main floor. If anybody has experience with designing these systems that would be a bonus.  (this has it's own design budget)

    -Add split-level sunroom on south end. 

    -Value-added design ideas are very welcome. 

    -Basement bedroom egress design.

    -Maybe add underslab plumbing, maybe electrical.

     

    Thanks for reading.  Le me know if you are interested or if you have questions.  I might want to follow up with a phone call.
