Living in New Orleans means a lifestyle unique to most, but we can all agree that having a nice outdoor space makes life better during our insufferable summer heat waves! Porches, pool houses and outdoor kitchens are desirable for entertaining during the rest of the year when the weather is somewhere between 50 and 80 degrees! Our clients in Uptown wanted to take advantage of their large rear yard and existing non-conforming carport with the hopes to drastically increase the space in which they entertain (mostly their children’s friends). The pool house has become slumber-party central for their twin daughters on the weekends. The family now unwinds on the rear porch overlooking the calming overflowing spa and pool. The new and inviting side entry has given the family an extra path welcoming them home.
