I want to buy this 1890 Victorian home. It's at a very low price. As the bank gutted the whole interior. Has a beautiful front porch with round turret on the corner. Love your videos sir.
Such impressive changes. From disjointed pieces that look horrible together to an integrated, timeless design of pieces that repeat in pleasing scale and proportion. Pure genius. Love seeing the thinking and before/after.
Love this so much, it's great to see the porch get so much character and harmonize with the original design. Would there be a way to keep the "solarium" and integrate it into the design, or does it break the historic coherency just by existing?
Interesting, I can see that the latter design looks more Victorian, but I think I like the original more with that extra room on there lol. What type did you say those original columns were? To me they look like they could fit with Arts & Crafts designs, which I thought would have some overlap with Victorian styles historically, but that was just my guess as a layperson. Is it more about the proportions?
Well, I say don't break the law for the sake of historical accuracy lol, but code and enforcement varies by locality. You can often get exceptions for historical homes
The porch has so much more presence with the “fix”
Thanks! I agree.
i love these videos! its like watching a before and after makeover
Cool. Thank you!

Best of luck! Thx
Love, love, love how the columns are now connected to the ground (vs floaters in mid air).
Great! Thanks.
Brent we can’t get enough of these!!!
Cool. Thanks.
Love these YouTurd short videos. 😂 caught that at the beginning 😉
Thanks!

Thank you very much!
Glad I found your channel! Exactly the content I’m looking for!
Glad to hear it! Welcome!
Not quite there yet. I thought you would correct the late faded Queen Anne look. Looks like the client is stuck on a dubious porch detail.
🤔 Hhmmm?
noted.
awesome job!
Thanks!
Awesome. This is such a lost art.
Thank you! Cheers!

Thanks, I think that can work. Good idea.

Hmm, no, I saw those as too "new house". Proportion as well as parts. Thx
wow!
Thanks.
I have the lower porch railing on my 1863 Victorian and the porch needs a total rebuild…….what about code?
I would replace it exactly as it was built. Unless your porch is really high off the ground, you don't need to worry. Follow historic precedent.

Quote you often Brent, "Sketch 15 minutes a day". Work on it.
Great Work, Thanks!!
