Second Floor

The flat decking above the garage is the floor of the new addition.  We'll have 2 bedrooms, a bathroom, and a closet for the HVAC and hot water heater.  The first pic shows the bedrooms on either side.  At the far end is a jack and jill bathroom.


The roof will mirror the rest of the house - a very low pitch and all framing done by hand with a calculator.


In the rear of the house, the addition is cantilevered to provide more living space.  The green zip walls have a water resistant coating. 

We are also installing Tyvek DrainWrap (the white paper) over this as an extra precaution. 


And here's the view from the front.  Our architect added a bit of detail and a lower level roofline so it wouldn't look too much like a square box plopped on a garage.
