Sometimes good design means knowing what not to change.
Opening up this 1970s Soquel home initially meant exploring the removal of several structural posts. But after studying the existing framing with the structural engineer, we found a better answer: work with them.
One post was incorporated directly into the new kitchen island, while others became part of a custom pony wall defining the entry.
Less invasive. More cost-conscious. And ultimately, a solution that feels like it was always meant to be there.
That’s the kind of problem solving we love.
