About the Project 1479 Maywood was a quaint Cape Cod in a quiet neighborhood. The owners wanted to enlarge the home to accommodate their extended family and address the many energy-efficiency issues a whole house renovation would allow. Dawn Zuber of Studio Z Architecture created a compact solution that adds a 1st floor master suite and an enlarged kitchen and dining area that opens to a new family room. Upstairs we “popped the top off” to create two spacious bedrooms and a full bath to welcome family and guests. Inside and out, we honored the home’s 1940s design, while introducing new materials and science to deliver a low-maintenance, efficient home. The end result – a truly perfect Cape Cod with comfort and style!
