Not all garage doors are created equal. Dynamic Garage Doors are custom designed for each individual project. Our full custom design and manufacturing abilities allow us to create unique custom garage doors that naturally blend into each home's authentic architectural style. This Mid Century style carport was converted into a fully functional garage but presented a problem when it came time to retrofit it with a custom wood garage door. Since the ground was pitched at a sloping angle it required the need of a custom designed asymmetrical garage door that would compensate for the huge gap at the bottom of the garage door opening. Taking careful measurements was of essence to handcraft a garage door that would fit perfectly into the awkwardly shaped garage opening. Once everything was calculated to perfection our designers came up with a minimalistic Mid Century style garage door design that would complement the home's architectural elements. The answer was a fine-lined garage door design with horizontal tongue and groove slats in solid mahogany that were carefully stained to simulate and match the home's existing ipe wood accents. We opted for ipe-stained mahogany in lieu of real ipe to save the client on the custom garage door cost while still delivering a garage door that will last a lifetime and look like a naturally blended architectural element of the home. Enclosing the carport and adding a Dynamic Garage Door re-purposed and graduated a simple carport to a fully functional garage with a working automatic garage door. Investing in a custom garage door for this sloping carport will prove to return the investment at time of resale. Not to mention, of course, the curb appeal enhancement it gave the home.

These ceiling beams are astounding! Dan had to mathmatically calculate the "X" cuts which were different for the larger middle beam. He masterfully planned for the LED lighting to be recessed in them.

As the sun arcs across the backyard during the day, the resulting shadows provide changing compositions on the adjacent wall and ground. Passive solar design principles were employed, with the roof overhangs being calculated to prevent solar intrusion during warm months while allowing sunlight into the main living spaces during the winter.

This fireplace was a fun challenge. The customer called and said they had 26 pieces of marble, and no picture or directions of how it went together. After lots of measuring and calculating the work was begun and ultimately completed. The customer was very pleased as was I.

The inset cedar gables are patterned as a graphical reflection of the tree growth in the area over the past 100 years. A government report of tree growth that analyzed the tree rings of local trees provided a metric that could be reinterpreted as board widths. These were calculated and installed as the east and west gables; a contextual reference to the age of the farmstead on the new house.

Situated on the shore of newfound lake in central new hampshire, this outdoor retreat looks west over the spring fed waters toward the mountains beyond. Our design intent was to provide the homeowners with a viewing perspective that captured the feel of lakefront living. The fire pit terrace, situated on a plane aligned with the home’s main floor, uses native granite from a nearby quarry to create a refined campfire retreat. This carefully calculated elevation makes the upper plateau appear to jut out into the lake. A quick walk down a grass path with granite lawn treads brings us to a private beach for lounging and water access. Transitioning from refined to rustic successfully makes the landscape feel cohesive and inviting.

Client requested that I plan a formal rose garden. Soil needed a great deal of sand, fresh soil, and fertilizers. Irrigation needed to be installed as a drip line for all roses, so the measurements had to be exact. Once the total for all boxwoods as hedge were calculated, client decided not to install that portion.
