With almost 180-degree views, the main living area of this spectacular waterfront home sits high on a bluff and welcomes views of the lake from the east, south and west. Currently under construction, this home has three distinct annexes: a main living/eating area; a section with the main bedroom suite and 3 spacious guest bedrooms; and, a 2-level garage offering plentiful storage. The entire home is designed to capture the views and fill the interior with light. The garage and mudroom are linked with a screened bridge and a foyer with soaring windows on three levels links the great room/kitchen/dining area with the bedrooms. Off the main living area, an expansive wrap-around deck (covered off the kitchen for outdoor cooking) and screened room with a fireplace provide outdoor living and entertaining space during all types of weather. Walking bridges welcome guests to the front covered entry and allow easy access to the wrap-around deck.

This University Club lakefront property is something special! The homeowners wanted to take full advantage of their 180 degree vista of the lake. An existing outdoor kitchen with second floor balcony provide incredible views of the surrounding landscape, while the spa is positioned to allow equally magnificent views of the waterfront. This house was a traditional home with contemporary elements. Lots of whites and neutral tones create a clean and sleek look, while the painted brick, stained wood accents, and traditional southern plants give this waterfront property its "Louisiana Flavor".

Eliot Designer Dining Table is a stunning depiction of purist design that outlasts time and offers a great degree of versatility and customization.

Natural light streams in everywhere through abundant glass, giving a 270 degree view of the lake. Reflecting straight angles of mahogany wood broken by zinc waves, this home blends efficiency with artistry.

This home was designed by Bercovitz Design Architects for a large family, especially for summer use. It sits directly adjacent to a golf course with 270 degree views of the surrounding rugged mountains in Colorado. The style of the home is alpine contemporary, also drawing from traditional European forms as well as southwestern massing. The house comprises extensive stonework and log siding. For the interiors, the owner desired a traditional Italian influence so there are massive stone arches that integrate nicely with plaster walls and decorative ironwork.

Have you ever dreamt about your pie in the sky home? Well I have! That is, our wonderful client’s dream home. It includes a place with 72-degree weather everyday, a wondrous view of a harbor, a walkable city & with clean, modern accommodations. And voilà… a penthouse flat in downtown San Diego by the bay. We stripped away the cheap 80’s rental finishes, opened things up to bring in the sunshine, added new flooring, kitchen, bathrooms, a fireplace refresh and modern furniture for a little slice of heaven and comfort. Don't tell anyone, but there’s even a Lazy Boy chair in there!
