This house is located on a small slope, and the steps of the old porch, not only were steep, but literally buried in the depths of the veranda.

Because there was a greater desire to hold meals and coffee in the street, the place for the new porch was chosen next to the kitchen, from which there would be direct access to the porch.

At the beginning of the concreted columns under the porch and set on them support. The porch will be without a canopy and the height of the supports corresponds to the height of the porch plus the height of the railing.

After they made the harness of the porch, set lags.

Because in the old porch were high steps, then for the new porch used two techniques that make the steps more comfortable. It was not beautiful to just make the sloping stairs much better, because the staircase was very long. Therefore, the exit from the porch was divided into several levels: two wide steps from the house to the porch, five ordinary steps from the porch to the patio, and two steps from the porch to the gazebo.

In order for the tree on the steps not to slide in bad weather - extreme steps made with anti-slip ribs.

For frameless glazing using safety tempered glass. This is a rather expensive decision, but here it was dictated by the desire to have a beautiful view of the garden from the house. In addition, the glazing area is small and the costs are almost reasonable.
