AIA Design Excellence Recognition, this is a refined, light-filled architectural intervention that amplifies space, daylight, and connection while complimenting the site’s integrity. Working entirely within the existing foundation, the design introduces a layered, multifunctional program: two guest rooms, an office, basketball gym, media room, and entertaining kitchen. Each space flows into the next, supporting varied uses without feeling compartmentalized. Skylights above the stair, clerestory windows over the gym, and floor-to-ceiling glass draw daylight deep into the plan, transforming rooms into bright, engaging living spaces.

The Bragg Creek Residence beautifully merges timeless architecture with a modern, nature-inspired interior. Framed by forested views, the design celebrates its surroundings through organic materials and a restrained, earthy palette. The result is a space that feels balanced, serene, and distinctly refined. Natural oak and stone elements ground the interiors, while the kitchen takes center stage with a rich, dark green island that adds depth and sophistication. Elegant brass accents and a Delta Champagne Bronze faucet introduce warmth and subtle contrast, lending modern luxury to the palette. A sculptural staircase and open layout amplify natural light, inviting an effortless flow throughout the home.

This contemporary home features two striking staircases with integrated LED lighting, glass railing, and thick wood treads.

The first-level staircase uses cantilevered and field-supported construction, while the second rises on dual metal stringers. Glass railing continues on the second-floor balcony, creating a cohesive system where light and glass elevate the design beyond the purely functional. 1976-2026 © Century Stair Company

A kitchen remodel for a retired Navy Captain who was ready for an upgrade to his beloved home. We wanted to keep the space light and aery but have that contrast with the black appliances. Cleanliness and easy of care were top priorities, so we used wood-looking porcelain tile and quartz for the hard surfaces. Arctic white cabinets got a chocolate glaze to amplify the detail in the door style and added a warmer feel to this large kitchen. The slab we picked was a statement piece and we made sure to use it for the backslash and waterfall it down the bar peninsula. We preserved the same footprint in this kitchen, changed out the pony wall for a bar-high peninsula, upgraded the appliances and painted the whole space Dover White.
