Man, this is awesome! The issue with porches in general is that they tend to block light from getting inside. This is a very cool two-pronged approach to overcoming that while still keeping your porch. I'm looking at buying in an area that is full of craftsman-style houses, and I just can't get behind the style. Besides just not liking how they look from the front, the living rooms seem like dark caves. I also like that your demo also leaves room for other/halfway approaches, such as removing the porch's ceiling-wall, but keeping the roof fully intact, fx if you want to have a bit more shade. Don't listen to the dummies regurgitating who would rather see a house abandoned than changed. I do agree that going into further depth about the interior of the house would be cool, but honestly who cares, you were just showing a concept. I think this is great stuff, going to check out some more of your content. Keep doing stuff like this!

I think you made a very appealing and aesthetically aesthetic facade, but whether it's good architecture depends entirely on what's behind that outer wall. Is there a living room behind the front door that makes use of the light that come in from the huge walls of glass, or is it merely a mudroom? How does this facade relate to the people who live there and their needs? I feel like you're working with architecture on a superficial level, but you made a very pretty house nevertheless.

Your the first designer / Architect who dares modernize a beloved craftsman house . I currently own a beloved craftsman style house . While mine is much nicer then the one in this video it still needs important. However ever contractor I talk to seems to want to continue to finish out my home with the timeless craftsman style . Obviously I like the craftsman style is why I bought the home . But I’m also an artist and can see this house transformed into a blend of modern and craftsman style . While I can envision it I can’t seem to find someone to actually show me what it could look like or if what I see can even be done . I constantly hear “ oh you don’t want to do that “ when I do ! Or that style doesn’t match the craftsman style you currently have ! Which I know and why I want it . Would ut be possible to send you pictures of what my house looks like and some style I like and see what you come up with ? How much would that cost ? I’m in Arkansas and I think I’m just in the wrong state for my frame of mind as far as finding someone who can think outside the tradition box ! Arkansas is a beautiful state and it’s known for its traditional ways but that’s not what I’m looking for with he design if my home

This is really amazing to hear. Unfortunately some architecture fans tend to come off as a bit snobby and are afraid to experiment for the fear of destroying or "ridiculing" the original concept but I think that these exercises are very important. It would definitely be possible. As for cost, it would depend how far we go with the process but I can explain that over a call or email or chat. I would love to see some photos and discuss and of course, I would not charge you for that.

Love the new design!! Great layers and visual interests. The symmetry really made a huge difference. Beyond the visual elements of the project, how did you factor the environmental effects of the external nature, the planters and water features into your material choices?
@Moochers

Glad you liked it! Since this exercise was strictly for aesthetic purposes, I did not factor things such as budget or environmental impact. You can consider this a very detailed "schematic" design where I'm piecing together a potential design to show to the client as a sort of baseline for future design development. If this design were to be approved, we would move into narrowing down possible choices for materials and vegetation based on budgets/environment and other factors. Hope this helps!

@@danteguyton7012 No problem! It really depends on the client/project. Some clients tend to be very specific on what they want and so the focus will be on generating plans and construction documents. Other clients may have no idea what they want and a tight budget and spending time selecting things like vegetation might eat up into the budget/timeline. In cases like this I like to proposes elements based off of aesthetics just to be able to have some talking points and develop from there. It's not uncommon, at least in my case, to have clients make huge changes like adding floors and/or rooms which really means you almost have to start all over. In my experience it's best to get a general sense of where the clients focus is and propose elements that have not been discussed. Otherwise the client can get overwhelmed if you start bringing up things like plants and their maintenance and the cost etc.

Thanks! Judging by those specs you should have no issues running AutoCAD/Photoshop smoothly (small to medium projects). 3DS Max should be okay on smaller projects but bigger projects will struggle. Vray should run but it will take very long. Check out each of their sites for a list of req's to help you compare your specs to what they recommend. Enjoy the new computer!

Maybe you should do this home some actual respect by researching what the Craftsman movement was, and improving upon what’s already a very beautiful style of home in a craftsman tradition instead of trying to turn it into some bastardized MidCentury modern thing that it isn’t. This is why modern design is shit. Taking away everything that makes this historic home what it is, and ruining it by making it modern garbage.
