If you\u2019re thinking of adding on to your home, you are in very good company. Building an addition is a great way to stay in the home you love with the neighbors who have become family and to get the extra space we are all craving these days.<\/p>\n

\u201cCustomers are looking for more space, which really means the right kind of space,\u201d says Normandy\u2019s Director of Design Troy Pavelka<\/a>. Troy adds, \u201cFamilies need areas to spread out into more than ever.\u201d<\/p>\n

With this in mind, Troy believes makes sense to consider including a screen porch<\/a> when planning a family room or kitchen addition. \u201cWhen expanding your living space through a family room or kitchen addition, a screen porch opens up indoor\/outdoor living possibilities for several months out of the year,\u201d Troy explains.<\/p>\n

\"porchAnd while many people think of a simple north woods beam and screen structure, screen porches have come a long way in the creature comforts department. \u201cScreen porches<\/a> have evolved into pretty phenomenal spaces with outlets for TVs, solid masonry fireplaces and even heated floors that will get you another month or two out there when the weather cools,\u201d says Troy.<\/p>\n

To enhance the overall feeling of your home post-addition, Troy suggests carrying over design elements for a smooth transition between the spaces. \u201cIt makes sense to match the outdoor materials, architectural materials and roof forms,\u201d says Troy. \u201cFlooring and floor height are important to consider when you\u2019re deciding how closely to align the family room or kitchen and screen porch,\u201d Troy adds.
