Michael Merrill Design Studio created this space for a retired couple who wanted to create a home in San Francisco to winter in each year. The building they chose was a lovely 1936 Art Deco structure facing the San Francisco Bay. The Asian artifacts the homeowners collected during their travels were incorporated prominently.

The vaulted ceiling in this dining space make the space feel expansive for being a charming 1936 Portland home.

This beach home was originally built in 1936. It's a great property, just steps from the sand, but it needed a major overhaul from the foundation to a new copper roof. Inside, we designed and created an open concept living, kitchen and dining area, perfect for hosting or lounging. The result? A home remodel that surpassed the homeowner's dreams. Outside, adding a custom shower and quality materials like Trex decking added function and style to the exterior. And with panoramic views like these, you want to spend as much time outdoors as possible!

“If everyone is moving forward together, then success takes care of itself.” - Henry Ford It’s no secret that one big reason for Jacobson Construction’s success is because of our people. I’ve always hired the best people who work together as a team while respecting our customers. These are real professionals who work together and get the job done. Sean, our project leader, has been with me since 1995, and my electrician has been with me even longer. Many of my current staff have been with me for over 15 years. I am fortunate to have these skilled professionals working with me. The addition is coming along. There’s a hole in the kitchen where there used to be a supporting wall. Framing’s done in the basement, and a gas fireplace is ready to be installed. The second-floor dormers are framed, and all of our windows have been delivered. Now that it’s taking shape, looks like one of our new favorite spaces will be the new second-floor bedroom. Because it’s adjacent to the master suite it could make an ideal nursery and add value to my home. Paying for things you can’t see is hard. For example, putting on a new roof is expensive, and because you can’t see it this seems like an even bigger expense. What you can’t see on this addition is how much effort is made in securely tying the addition to the existing home – originally built in 1936. We needed to support part of the old roof and all the new roof with stacked support posts. To do that we installed 3 stacked posts to carry the load from new footings in the basement to the beam three stories up. The red marked beam in the photo at the top of the page is supported by footings three stories below, halfway into the existing home. We also physically connected the new addition with beams that extend halfway into the current home.

The original gardens of this Fort Worth estate date back to 1936 when the famous Kansas City landscape architecture firm Hare & Hare designed the grounds featuring sculpted boxwood english knot garden. The homeowner purchased the adjacent lot and called on the accomplished Dallas & Fort Worth architect Ralph Duesing to create a design to honor the original design but scale to encompass the full four and a half acres. This extensive remodel included the extension of the perimeter walls, wrought iron elements and the addition of a classical carved limestone lily pond and Diana sculptured pedestal by Davis Cornell.
