This sunroom/addition involved a high degree of cooperation and teamwork among our crew, the clients and the architect (our friend Bruce Butler of By Design). To save the significant expense of a foundation, we built on piers and used what we've learned about insulation and air sealing to create a warm, bright room. The owners had a solar hot water system installed with our assistance, and we worked together to create a warm interior, even integrating some opaque circuit boards from one of the homeowners' career as an electrical engineer. Take a panoramic tour of the interior here .
 A framing challenge involving a welded steel frame.  Plenty of glass, sited for optimal winter heat gain and cool summers. Note solar hot water collectors on roof.  Great for relaxing and entertaining  Close up of lighting soffet |
