Callie Court Carport
A carport only looks right when it looks like it was always there. For this home, we cut new footings through the existing slab, framed a gable roof pitched to match the house, and finished it with wrapped columns and a tongue-and-groove cyprus ceiling — details most carports never get. Siding and trim blend into the original structure, and two cars now live out of the coastal sun and salt air. Function first, but nobody would call it plain.
