The New Normal Porch, for PUSH Buffalo

The New Normal Porch is a project for PUSH Buffalo at 236 Normal Avenue. The design of the porch reinterprets and combines many features and details that are common to historic, Victorian-era houses in Buffalo. The porch provides four unique room-like environments across two sides of the house, which might be shared or divided by the two families which will reside inside. These unique environments allow for different degrees of weather protection, shade, privacy and distinction through the use of screens, partial enclosures and decorative elements.

Lead Builders: Will Blanda, with Quincy Koczka and Nick Wheeler. Signature column by Danielle Nelson.
