A ground up design and build of a modern seven bedroom primary residence incorporating sustainable design principles built for an international family of four. The concept revolved around the need for environmental sustainability while having plentiful communal spaces to create ease for a vibrant family and their guests. Equally important was that the private spaces functioned as a retreat.
Natural light creates shifting patterns on the opposing wall of the glass paned hallway leading from the main house past the guest bedrooms and to the master suite. Subtle color palette and interior design use contrasting tactile elements to create an environment of luxury and accessibility. The views of the pool and garden through the large and continuous windows enable an ever-present connection to nature.

What began as a cozy space for a pool table in the forests of northern Michigan evolved into an extraordinary two-story retreat. On the ground level, a spacious garage houses two pristine Porsches, while the second floor features a private glass bar accessed by bespoke glass stair treads. The stairs, crafted from fused glass with our Herma texture, combine elegance with a secure, anti-slip surface, offering uninterrupted beauty and unmatched durability. Each tread is supported by intricate metalwork featuring wolves—a nod to the client’s last name and a symbol of strength and individuality.
The glass bar is a true statement piece, with a sandblasted wolf face on the front and LED-lit glass shelves that create a magical, moonlit glow. This man cave seamlessly blends luxury with nature, capturing the essence of a hidden retreat filled with elegance, personality, and craftsmanship.
At ThinkGlass, we believe every project tells a story. This one is as powerful and unique as the wolf etched in glass, bringing the outdoors in with a rare and refined touch.

This dream home in Warsaw, MO, is designed to be a welcoming haven for family gatherings. The house features expansive wrap-around porches, providing ample outdoor space for relaxation and socializing. The open floor plan seamlessly integrates the kitchen, dining, and living room, creating a spacious and inviting atmosphere for everyone to gather. The attic floor offers additional living or storage space, while the basement is designed with plenty of storage in mind. The first floor includes a private grandmother's suite with easy access and a screened-in back porch for added comfort and privacy. The home's elegant design, cozy ambiance, and thoughtful layout ensure that everyone, from grandchildren to grandparents, feels comfortable and at home.

Inspired by another mid-century modern home the client owned, this new residence represents a much larger 21st-century version built into the gently sloping hillside to take advantage of the sprawling hilltop views of the Sonoma valley. The quiet front facade leads guests into a formal entry that divides the house into private and public spaces. Rounding the corner into the great room, one is immediately hit by the breathtaking view that extends outward beyond the infinity pool and deck through a continuous wall of glass. In the opposite direction, each of the three bedrooms was designed with its own seating area and bathroom, creating private suites for family members and guests alike.
The linear design and open, flowing living spaces provide almost every room with outdoor access to the expansive patio, protected from the Sonoma heat by deep overhangs. Warm woods, clean lines, and a rhythmic post and beam ceiling design create a homey feeling of rest and relaxation, evoking the essence of modern California living.

Nestled under 150 year old pecan and oak trees, we carefully and thoughtfully preserved and restored this rare 1928 Federal Style Craftsman near downtown Atlanta, while adding a new 2 story, 1,000 sf addition in the back. The addition, like the house boasts, 10 foot ceilings, yet is sited in a way to seamlessly blend with the original house, without dominating the unique original structure.

Craftsman Corners fit well with Pac Trim's Pioneer Series PIO190

This gambrel home takes full advantage of its rugged costal heights, embracing intoxicating ocean views from both wings of the house. Gracious interiors include a balance of formal living spaces, casual family quarters and private domains. Romantic details such as a tower with a curving staircase and wall of windows give it distinct personality. Architects transformed the site’s topography, providing vehicular access and building a 30-foot stone retaining wall to level the site. The change in landscape was sensitively integrated into the existing terrain through use of native materials and color. Reminiscent of estate architecture, the team created connections between the elegant seaside dwelling and its outbuildings, such as the carriage house and beach house.

One Raven is a truely unique project that pushes the boundaries of urban density without losing heritage roots. Located in the heart of North Vancouver‘s up and coming moodyville neighbourhood, One Raven will be a beacon on E 3rd. With one of the last remaining heritage buildings on the front of the lot, the project consists of a NetZero high-performance infill duplex, each complete with its suite. This will add 4 new livable units in an infill laneway format with the heritage home complementing the site. The project is built to Level 5 of the BC Energy Step Code meaning it is already at the energy targets for all buildings in 2032, 13 years early! This spectacular and unique project was designed by the talented architect Tina Hubert at Design Studio 8.
The passive house inspired townhouses and suites will be accessed via an internal courtyard bi-secting the lot in an east-west orientation parallel to the street. A circulation corridor oriented north-south will be accessed from the sidewalk at the existing stone retaining wall and concrete stair.
The site design creates private open spaces yet also fosters connection to the semi-private realm of the inner courtyard. Each townhouse will have access to ground level patios, gardens, balconies and roof decks.
The exterior walls are “super” insulated walls that are 12” or more thick with a focus on air-tight detailing. High performance triple pane windows are oriented southward to maximize solar gain in winter and rely on shading devices in the summer. All other windows are located to promote natural ventilation and to reduce energy losses. The highly air-tight building (0.93 ACH) utilizes heat recovery ventilation system to exhaust air and bring in fresh air. The building is designed to be compact with a reduced surface area.
Maximizing on-site infiltration and rainwater collection will help manage storm water runoff. Ground-oriented landscape lighting and low planting along pathways and lot lines encourage visibility and overlook.
The architecture of the building is uniquely modern and clearly establishes it‘s identity, through horizontal and vertical rectilinear forms, asymmetrical window placement, slim profile detailing, standing seam metal cladding, heritage coloured siding, and architectural panelized guardrails.

The home is designed around the pivotal access of the ocean view. Timber screens protect the house from the harsh South African sun but provide the flexibility to enjoy the beautiful views and to have a comfortable living space all year round.
The timber screens act as security gates as well, should the owner prefer to use the space only as a holiday home and have the peace of mind that everything is safe and secure.
