This existing home was originally built circa 1919, and was ready for a major renovation. As was characteristic of the period in which the home was built, the existing spaces were small and closed in. The design concept included removing walls on first floor for a thoroughly updated and open living / dining / kitchen space, as well as creating a new first floor powder room and entry. Great care was taken to preserve and embrace original period details, including the wood doors and hardware (which were all refinished and reused), the existing stairs (also refinished), and an existing brick pier was exposed to restore some of the home’s inherent charm. The existing wood flooring was also refinished to retain the original details and character. This photo highlights some the home's original hardware that was reutilized. Photo Credit: Steve Dolinsky

Our client in Katy, Texas had an existing covered patio that was too small to meet their family's needs. Tradition Outdoor Living designed a large outdoor retreat, perfect for their family and with plenty of space for entertaining or visiting with family and friends. This open plan included a pergola, outdoor kitchen and bar, stamped concrete and a fire pit with seating area. Stepping out onto the patio, your attention is immediately drawn to the stunning stone firepit and seating area. This custom bench provides additional seating for roasting S’mores, stargazing, and serves as a wall to hide the large utility box in the yard. The polygal covered pergola offers partial shade with added protection from the heat and rain. Enjoy grilling, dining, and entertaining without having to worry about the unpredictable Texas weather. The raised bar constructed from the same stone as the outdoor kitchen and fire pit ties the old and new spaces together. The entire outdoor space flows seamlessly with the custom stamped concrete overlay. Our clients love their expanded outdoor space for grilling, watching TV, enjoying the hot tub and of course watching the night sky by the fire pit.

One day in our yard I noticed these two reclaimed timbers sitting side by side on top of a pile of timber. The roman numeral VIII and the 1E shown in this photograph were how timber frames of old were marked for assembly. Hewn timber of old was neither straight, square nor flat, so the joinery wasn't interchangeable. To avoid mistakes when raising the frame later, joiners scribed marks into timbers that were fit to each other, or married. © Carolina Timberworks
