1. The Client request
The client wanted to release space
from their main property to create a home office
(Their sons recreation area would be lost). He had the idea of
building a new space down by the pool with possibilities for
recreation, study, entertaining friends etc. etc. A significant
additional family facility with multiple uses and multiple
facilities.
