Before SAVE and get this look JANE SAYS “SAVE ON YOUR CURB APPEAL” This house appears one-dimensional. Adding a peak over the front door and extending it forward will make the house appear larger. This home can also be changed by adding more contrast in the exterior colour scheme. A black roof with thatched patterned shingles will add a quaint feel. Darker trim and lighter siding will help create dimension. The scale of the house is nice as it isn't too big. The neutral colour scheme works overall and makes for a good basis to add more elements.  The overall goal would be to transform this house into a craftsman style bungalow. This is a highly desirable design style for many homeowners as it's an organic style in canada and fits many neighbourhoods across the country.  After Renderings based on sketches by Angela Gauthier Longview Handleset Baldwin Hardware www.baldwinhardware.com Kendra Trellis Doormat Available Online only at www. potterybarn.com All Weather Windows, www.allweatherwindows.com BARRINGTON ® CRAFTSMAN All Weather Windows, www.allweatherwindows.com House Number - 6 Baldwin Hardware www.baldwinhardware.com 72 CANADIANHOMETRENDS.COM One Light Corinthian Bronze Antique Excavation Glass Wall Lantern, Living Lighting, www. livinglighting.com
