Mid-sized trendy gray two-story mixed siding exterior home photo in Raleigh

This project is a transformation of a dilapidated three-unit apartment house into two modern, town-house style condominiums. The interiors are open, light-filled and oriented to enjoy the adjacent open space and views. Intimate outdoor spaces have been strategically located for views and privacy. The dwellings are Energy-Star certified, with estimated energy savings of 38% below conventionally built houses. Sustainable design features include: compact design; maximum daylighting; advanced building envelope design; a hybrid natural/mechanical cooling system; high efficiency mechanical systems and appliances; and non-toxic interior materials. General Contractor: Adams & Beasley

Kirkland's East of Market neighborhood is more urban in character than the surrounding communities, encouraging a design that occupies the urban-suburban boundary. Living spaces are tightly organized and vertical, stacked over the garage, with a shifted geometry between floors creating a dynamic form. photo by Lara Swimmer
