OUR PROJECTS

Creating Open-concept Living

Connecting rooms together can create a more open floor plan and bring light into rooms that were otherwise dark because of an existing wall.  Opening the space in your home can create a more social environment for the family and for your company.  If someone is cooking in the kitchen then guest or family can all be together. Commonly, removing the wall between kitchen and living room is the what homeowners are looking for or sometimes part of a load bearing wall can be removed resulting in an open-concept look.  See one of our projects below that gives an example of removing supporting wall in kitchen.

Design Ideas When

Removing Walls in the house

A completely open space can be created by having a beam installed to carry the full support of the wall removal.  To carry the weight that the wall was holding you can replace a load bearing wall with a beam.  You can have a load bearing wood beam or an LVL or alternatively you can have load bearing steel beam installed or an i-Beam that can be elegantly covered over.   Other design choices to consider is when a load bearing wall has support columns.  Therefore load bearing column ideas are important to the homeowner.
