MyPad: A sunspot for Weekend Getaways

Years ago we had an planner design an addition to our home. It contained a sun room, playroom, music room, and dining room off of the side of our home. We have decided to reduce the plan to a sun room, attached to the house, but adjacent to the kitchen. Since it will be approachable from only the outside and it is in a sense to be a breakfast nook or outdoor kitchen but is really none of these, I called it "MyPad", a place for a weekend retreat and weekend projects. The connecting link between the house and this room is a garden window, a classical solar component, that we are converting into a modern one with to days' technology.

We plan to customize a small room plan and convert the porch into a sun-porch, that is, include solar arrays or shingles on the porch roof. The plan will include appliance shelves and provisions for a walk in pantry. All small appliances are to be energy efficient. A closet is included in this suite to allow the room to even be converted into a gym with portable equipment easily stored. Click on the picture below to find some convertible furniture.


The inside of this space is to be convertible. A key component will be a console/card/dining table to so that the area can serve as a work and play room. Portable electronics will allow the area to serve as a study, office, or studio, and more. A great new device has appeared that is perfect for a kitchen. With all-in-one electronic devices and energy efficient appliances, this room is planned to be a self-sufficient in terms of utilities.
