INSPIRATION IN ACTION
Aimee is inspired to help people optimize their living space by creating their construction documents accurately and efficiently.Â
She analyzes the existing context, while sharing insights to facilitate the design process.
PAGODAÂ HOUSE
I had fun with this hypothetical design as I explored options for bringing in more natural light, connecting the indoors to the outdoor spaces and creating a better flow of the living spaces.
Adding more functional space options, adjusting existing walls, strategic window placement, and refining the roofline as needed are great options for transforming your existing space to better serve your needs.
A substantial alteration, like this, has a full review process within the building jurisdiction and usually takes a few months for planning and review.
BACKYARD COTTAGE
Over the years, I have created many backyard cottage designs to serve the needs of each client’s particular purpose. Creative use of space and multi-function make a tiny house into a home.
Creating an Accessory Dwelling Unit, whether within the primary structure or as a detached unit, requires a full review process within the building jurisdiction and usually takes a few months for planning and review.
ADD ROOF DORMERS
Dormers have become a very popular way
to add living space to an existing home.
Attic area can be transformed into better storage,
a Master Suite or a bonus room for work or play.
Creating a dormered roof, whether utilizing specialized trusses or stick framed to reconfigure the roof area, both methods require a Structural Engineer for their load calculations and framing details.
Please ask me about the Structural Engineers
I've been coordinating with for 10+ years.

WORKSHOP/HOME OFFICE
Working from home, it’s great to have an office or workshop to conduct business, separate from the living area. Accessory structures have different requirements than the primary structure on your property, so the possibilities are more flexible to add needed space.
SMALL ADDITION
When you just need a little more space, an addition that maximizes the potential for multiple uses can be the perfect solution. Â A small addition, like this, can usually get permitted fairly quickly.
INTERIOR REMODEL
The moment I walked into my first house, I knew which wall needed to go and saw the potential for connecting spaces to facilitate community within our home. It completely transformed the social area of our house by creating openness and lots more seating options.
STORAGE SHED
When a friend wanted to add storage to their mid-century rental property, we explored the options in AutoCAD, so that he could decide which roof shape looked best with the style of the building.
