Overview

Conistra is a Renaissance‑inspired residence defined by a round tower with a conical roof, stucco cladding, and a gabled body with dormers. A main level plus finished attic creates a compact, dignified profile, while disciplined detailing, clear sections, and practical spans deliver a graceful home ready for permit and construction.

Client Type

Conistra suits households seeking classic presence with modern practicality. It favors simple, buildable geometry, light‑catching dormers, and a right‑sized plan that balances daily routine with a touch of ceremony at the towered entry.

Project Scope

The Conistra project delivers a complete, permit‑ready set for a two‑level home. The architectural program includes:

• Main floor plus attic within gabled roof, dormers for light and egress

• Three bedrooms total: two on main, one in attic

• Two full bathrooms and efficient circulation

• Slab‑on‑grade foundation, 9' interior walls, 6'8" headers

• Stucco exterior, conical‑roof tower, shingle gables

• Full sheets: floor plans, dimensions, elevations, roof, slab edge, sections, and MEPs

• Structural engineering to follow for stamping

Challenges Addressed

• Integrating a circular tower into a gabled volume without structural conflicts

• Achieving attic egress and comfort with dormer placement and roof geometry

• Preserving classical proportions while maintaining modern code and clear spans

• Packaging drawings for smooth review and straightforward bidding

Goals Achieved

✔️ Iconic tower gesture balanced by a calm, buildable gabled massing

✔️ Daylit attic bedroom with dormers sized for egress and headroom

✔️ Efficient two‑bath layout and practical slab‑on‑grade detailing

✔️ Complete documentation that bridges design intent and structural follow‑on
