Site plan, demolition plan, foundation plans and details, floor plans, roofing plans and details, elevations, sections and details, plumbing, heating, lighting, sketches Roc's Comments: Jan Russell and her husband had a nice old early 20th century white clapboard farmhouse. They were introduced to me by Jan's brother, David Milliken. David worked for me briefly years earlier and we got along well. The Russells wanted an expanded home and we wanted to create a project that both accommodated their need to expand and ultimately looked like it had always been there. I think we accomplished that quite well as most people did not notice the change. Bob Bond was the builder. As an interesting side note. The Russells hired Dennis Bracale to do some landscaping and he volunteered to do a further expansion on their home. The work was done by Steve Demers a former COA design student who later worked in our office on the Gilley Museum project. So the Russell house has become a two generation project. I think Steve did a fine job.

Foundation plan, floor plans, elevations, sketches Roc's Comments: Rick and Linda Savage asked me to design a new home for them on land near the Brown Mountain Gatehouse. They had a traditional "colonial cape " style "big house/little house/back house/barn" form and we made it work with their 20th century program. Very nice people and it was an honor to work with them.
