East Houston Restoration and Addition
San Antonio, TX
Work5hop designed an addition and restoration -- both inside and out -- for this gorgeous, but deteriorating historic San Antonio home.  In addition to design work, Work5hop facilitated passage of the project through the city's Historic Design and Review Commission.

Many historic homes have little of their original interiors left.  This project is an exception: casework, coffered ceilings, intricate paneling, and detailed flooring patterns all remain.  Work5hop's work focused on restoring the original features of the home (which was used as a tea room for many years) while adding an addition to allow it to work for the new owners' needs.
