to porch or not to porch?

So I've been obsessing of late. If you know me at all you'll know I'm a fan of a great grand porch, the sprawling, lazy afternoon, sipping mojitos lounger porch. However, not all of us are blessed with such porches as for instance, this massive stunner in Laurelhurst (a wrap-around porch to boot!).

So I was wondering and dreaming of some fantastic porch additions and found some goodies.
