Small covered Patio and BBQ addition in Palo Alto

Addition of a flat roof section with center trusses and an open gable are tucked under existing roof dormers. Open columns and a wide folding patio door with a side barbecue area created a brand new outdoor room for this Palo Alto home. New stone columns and painted trim are integrated with the existing patio and home. French sliding doors were replaced with a broad folding wall system. Skylights in the natural wood deck ceiling let in filtered sun.
