RUMOR IS that Jenny Richards and Todd Wallar recently doubled the size of their house.
But where? The charming blue Tudor with white trim, 800 square feet and change, sits on its Ravenna street just like it always has. Carpet of lawn, concrete walk out front. Nothing unusual here, folks.
Its out back.
We love the house, says Richards of the place Wallar bought in 2001. But we needed more room. We contacted a lot of architects and design firms who wanted us to knock the house down, but we couldnt have two mortgages.
We also wanted to be good to our neighbors and not put up this gargantuan thing. Plus, she says in defense of the Tudor, we have great curb appeal.
And that is how Jim Burton of Jim Burton Architects came to attach a large contemporary HardiePanel and cedar box directly onto the back of the Tudor. Ingeniously, says Richards, stepping the addition down the sloped yard instead of building up. Placing the addition in the couples otherwise urban farm of a backyard (vegetable garden, fruit trees, bees). And giving the two-bedroom, one-bath home three bedrooms, two baths, a light-filled family room and vastly improved kitchen in a mere 800 additional square feet.
The pivot point of the new box is a clever apple-ply storage block. Upstairs it serves as display and storage, and as a stairwell railing. Along the stairs its a library wall. Down in the master it becomes a design element, holding display niches.
A large beam between kitchen and family room divides old and new. The remodeled kitchen mediates between them. And mediate it does.
I used to be a food blogger, Richards says. For years I churned out a lot of food out of that (galley) kitchen. Were both cooks. Hes got a Persian chicken marinating for tonight. Im more pastry and baking.
But, you know, bigger kitchen, happier couple.

President John Hennessy delivering his annual address to the Academic Council on Thursday
Faculty, staff and students will likely begin to see solar panels appearing on about a dozen building roofs throughout campus as the university continues its efforts to embrace sustainability in campus operations.
Those installations are yet another step reflecting the emphasis Stanford has placed over the past several decades on enhancing both academic and operational programs in sustainability from developing new centers for research and teaching to designing more efficient campus energy and water systems.
As a result of that progress, President John Hennessy focused campus attention on wide-ranging issues of sustainability through his annual address to the Academic Council on Thursday.
While university researchers are looking to address such worldwide sustainability challenges as recovering clean water from wastewater, Stanford staff has been developing guidelines that result, for instance, in more efficient and sustainable buildings. Hennessy said students have been contributing as well, pursuing sustainability through such projects as building the Start.Home prototype for the Solar Decathlon competition. In addition, the university is communicating its values through the recent establishment of the Bright Award to recognize achievement in global conservation.
Although the university's overall initiatives are important, Hennessy reminded those in the audience, "For this university to operate in the most sustainable way possible depends on the action of all of us as individuals. We want to be a model."
Hennessy invited Pamela Matson, dean of the School of Earth Sciences, to join him in a discussion of academic progress in sustainability programs. Also addressing campus operational sustainability were Shirley Everett, senior associate vice provost of Residential and Dining Enterprises; Joseph Stagner, executive director of sustainability and energy management; and Fahmida Ahmed, associate director of sustainability and energy management.
Matson defined sustainability as "meeting the needs for people today and the future for food, water, energy, education, health care and so on in ways that protect and sustain the life support systems of the planet."
She added, "It's about meeting our needs, as well as those of our children and grandchildren. It's about intergenerational well-being."
