Mussmann Remodel Projects
Mussmann Remodel
projects
I started working on Albo Mussmann's houses when I was his tenant in 2001. I asked him
if I could remove a wall that unnecessarily separated the hall from the dining
area in the house I was living in (see barrelled wall
photos below). He consented, and a long-term series of collaborations
began. In the summer of 2009 we embarked on another series of projects
(see wall niche photos below). In March of 2013 I built the
skylight vault and piano niche, and that summer I created the entrance to the
Meditation Loft (see below).
