Project Notes
Why This Project Works
Design Priorities
The goal was to make the upper access route feel intentional and dependable. Proportion, landing clarity, railing alignment, and the way the stairs met the exterior all mattered because this element is both functional and highly visible.
Execution Notes
Exterior stair and deck work has to resolve structure, weather exposure, and finish quality at the same time. Framing, fastening, transitions, and final detailing were coordinated so the rebuild felt solid rather than simply replaced.
