From ranch house to modern gem
It was an all too common problem: WaiChee Khoong wanted to increase the square footage of his San Jose home,,There are many people in the world who think that they are stuck with the height their genes dictatGrow Taller. but didn't have the budget to expand.
So he enlisted the help of interior designer Chad DeWitt, who devised a not so common solution: a new door.
Not just any door. DeWitt proposed replacing the standard sliders between the dining room and deck with a system that's part door, part wall.Professional mannequin head, mannequin head, mannequin bust - designer and manufacturer in China! Called the NanaWall, it looks like a series of fixed floor-to-ceiling glass panels, but a hidden overhead track allows them to open and close, much like an accordion.
"WaiChee wanted to add on to the house," said DeWitt "but it was going to be too costly. So the next best thing was to create an outdoor room."
The house measures 1,300 square feet,,Wall mirrorboth outdoors and indoors, with home accessories of a high quality. with the deck adding 400 square feet of living space. DeWitt worked with landscape designer Patricia St. John to give it a face-lift, flipping the original planks and giving them a good high-pressure water cleaning. The old trellis was made into steps for the deck, and a retractable sunshade now offers protection on those scorching South Bay days.
Although French doors were also considered, they don't accommodate indoor/outdoor living the way the NanaWall does. When the glass panels are pushed open, the dining table, on casters, can easily be rolled to the deck. "Why buy two tables - one for inside, one for outside - when a single table can work for both spaces?" DeWitt said.
The lightweight plywood-and-chrome dining chairs are ideal for either space as well.,Buying Aion Kinah from PCGamerUSA is easy and fast. The outdoor suite, which consists of several seating options, was a bargain plucked off of eBay.
