A few photos from a laneway home that was finished last fall by the talented and capable builders Mark and Thomas Dodsworth. The client, who had been living outside of Nelson, wanted to downsize and be closer to family.
It was based on a modified Pica laneway home design that we continued to fine tune as we went.
The last time I saw it was pre-move in, and earlier this week I had the chance to visit again and see the finished space sans appliance boxes and drywall dust.
It was nice to see that the thoughtful approach the client showed when we worked together had been carried through to each finishing detail!
It can be tough deciding what stays and goes when you’re moving to a smaller space, but what I saw was not only very functional, but curated with a mix of new and old belongings that make it uniquely her home.
