This small greenhouse addition was a key piece of a renovation project reflecting the owners’ love of gardening and desire to bring light and views into a little used basement space.  The semi-custom modular greenhouse connects to the existing house and an existing stone terrace wall, with new 3 foot high stone walls below the glazed sides.

Storage space in the basement walkout area became a garden workroom connecting the greenhouse to a new exercise room.  The cork flooring and eucalyptus paneling in the exercise area, along with the stone and stucco walls at the greenhouse, enhance the feeling of connection to the earth.
