Our clients were clear on what they sought for their backyard transformation; an outdoor space that provided multiple areas that would accommodate private get-togethers and intimate lounging while ensuring that the garden had enough vegetation and storage space for the owner's collection of bicycles. Making use of the long rear yard site lines was essential to improve social gatherings while still maintaining privacy and individual function, including BBQ and dining, lounging, spa, bike shed with green roof and gardens. In the front, we kept it simple and elegant with a parking pad and landscaping to hide the two air conditioners under the front window.

This second floor addition has a beautiful laminate flooring with light blue and white walls finished off by white crown molding. I has a kitchenette complete with white shaker styled cabinets topped with stainless steel drawer and cabinet pulls and stainless steel appliances. For temperature controll, the room is furnished with a ceiling fan and suspended air conditioner.

The Cape May III - Southern Vernacular The classic American porch, often referred to as a veranda prior to World War II, was the center of social interaction. The Cape May III is graced by a traditional double-height porch, a staple of Southern small towns. The Greek Revival detailing, with corner pilasters supporting a pedimented gable, was also ubiquitous in the South. The french doors opening onto the veranda were favored in the pre-air-conditioner era for the refreshing whole house breezes and ample light they offered.

The wood shed hides the timber and the air conditioner unit. Love the simplicity of the area.

This detached garage uses vertical space for smart storage. A lift was installed for the owners' toys including a dirt bike. A full sized SUV fits underneath of the lift and the garage is deep enough to site two cars deep, side by side. Additionally, a storage loft can be accessed by pull-down stairs. Trex flooring was installed for a slip-free, mess-free finish. The outside of the garage was built to match the existing home while also making it stand out with copper roofing and gutters. A mini-split air conditioner makes the space comfortable for tinkering year-round. The low profile garage doors and wall-mounted opener also keep vertical space at a premium.

New shelves were installed to display the owners collection of coloured glass vases and bottles. The radiator was painted a charcoal grey to pop against the creamy white on walls and trim work.
