Barker Residence Kitchen/Breakfast Renovation
Ladue, MO Family Room & Porch Addition
An addition to this brick home in Ladue gave the owners the extra living space they desired and solved several deficiencies:
- A “back” door from the driveway provides a gracious guest entrance. It actually functions as the front door since a lack of street parking on this corner lot restricts access to the front of the house.
- A mudroom disguised as a Foyer transitions to the Family Room addition, to the renovated Kitchen and to the Garage. Functional storage and closet space conceals clutter.
- Load-bearing walls were removed to visually open the Kitchen to the Dining Room and to the addition so the cook stays connected with family and friends.
- A new corner window in the L-shaped Kitchen views the back yard.
The spacious Family Room addition provides a cheerful, informal setting for multiple family activities.

Private Residence Master Suite Addition
Olivette, MO Foyer & Front Porch Addition
Kitchen/Breakfast Renovation
This 50’s ranch home suffered from a choppy floor plan and a lack of space. Removal of the fireplace and wall between the original kitchen and dining room solved the owner’s desire for an open plan conducive to entertaining. A new front porch and Master Suite addition on the front of the house gave this once nondescript ranch a transformative facelift.

Combs Residence Sunroom Addition
Chesterfield, MO Patio & Spa Addition
Our Client wished to renovate the existing first floor and add a Sunroom so that the entire area would function as a cohesive entertainment space. We first removed the ‘70s style bar which separated the existing Family Room & Kitchen/Breakfast areas. This area became a connector between the Sunroom Addition & the existing living space. Large sliding glass walls open to connect the Sunroom to the new Patio and outdoor Kitchen. Stairs access a Spa at the walk-out lower level.

Adams Residence Kitchen/Breakfast Renovation,
Creve Coeur, MO Family Room & Deck Addition,
Master Suite Renovation
Feeling a bit cramped in their 3-bedroom ranch and dispirited in a dark kitchen, the Adams engaged Anton Architecture to reinvent their home. The project was completed in two phases. The first phase features a sunny kitchen renovation opening to a new Breakfast/Family Room addition. A new deck off the Family Room further extends the living and entertaining space. The second phase creates a spacious main level Master Suite and renovates the bedrooms and bathroom in the walk-out basement. The entrance Foyer was expanded and a successful zoning variance request permitted a new front porch.

McMackin Residence 2nd Floor Addition
Richmond Heights, MO Kitchen Renovation
For this project, we provided the Client two design options:
- renovating the existing 2nd floor which occupied the attic
- razing/rebuilding the 2nd floor
The Client chose the completely reconstructed 2nd floor which offered a much improved layout for slightly more money than the renovated 2nd floor option. The reconstructed option also allowed us to significantly improve the insulation values of the new roof and walls.

Binion Residence Whole house renovation
St. Louis, MO
This renovation demonstrates how we were able to improve a house’s layout and add a bedroom on the second floor without increasing the floor area. The trick was to relocate the stairway to the center of the house, thus converting hallway area into Bedroom area. The first floor enjoys a more spacious and open living plan.

Quirk-Williamson Residence Master Suite, Family Room Addition
Creve Coeur, MO Screen Porch and Patio Addition
The addition to the front of this modest ranch house gives it a dramatic street presence. Crisply detailed, it blends comfortably with the neighborhood. Circulation was improved by relocating the entrance and adding a Foyer. Originally constructed as a slab house, it lacked storage. The addition is constructed over a new basement accessed from a new stairway off the Foyer.
