Martha’s Vineyard; Vineyard Haven, MA This carriage house offers a classic and functional design that is a perfect fit for a coastal property on Martha's Vineyard. The structure is clad in natural cedar shingles, a signature material of New England coastal architecture that weathers to a beautiful, soft gray over time. The main feature is a set of large, blue-gray barn style sliding doors, which provide a rustic and traditional accent to the clean, shingle-sided facade. The steeply pitched roof and gabled end create a classic profile, while the blue-gray trim on the doors and windows adds a subtle, modern contrast to the warm tone of the shingles. A gravel driveway leads to the garage doors, offering a practical and classic New England feel. The building's design, reminiscent of the carriage houses and barns found throughout the area, blends seamlessly into its surroundings. The property also includes a well-maintained lawn and mature trees, completing the serene and private setting that is characteristic of a timeless coastal retreat.

Our client needed a quiet and dedicated workspace separate from the main house. Working from home had become challenging without a space designed for focus and privacy. We built a custom Minima backyard office, designed with a clean, minimalist aesthetic to blend naturally into the existing yard. The structure was constructed on-site and fully insulated, creating a comfortable environment for everyday work. Large windows and a full glass sliding door bring in natural light, making the space feel open and connected to the outdoors while maintaining privacy. The result is a simple, modern backyard office that provides separation, focus, and a better work-from-home experience.

This custom barndominium-style home in Franklin, Tennessee is a study in how rustic materials and modern design can coexist beautifully. Clad in natural cedar vertical siding with a standing seam metal roof, the exterior is grounded and unpretentious, yet the moment you step inside, the level of craft becomes immediately clear. Soaring vaulted ceilings finished in tongue-and-groove pine anchor the open great room, where a chef's kitchen features custom white oak cabinetry, honed quartzite countertops, a farmhouse sink, and glass-front display cabinets with interior lighting. A sculptural brass pendant marks the social lounge, while globe pendants in brushed gold illuminate the kitchen island. Every bathroom tells its own story, from a primary suite with a freestanding soaking tub set against herringbone tile and an arched built-in niche, to a powder room wrapped floor-to-ceiling in bold graphic tile with penny-round floors. The lower level delivers an entertainment space complete with a wet bar, mirrored backsplash, and polished concrete floors. Outside, a second-floor deck with a pass-through bar window opens to sweeping views of the Tennessee countryside, the kind of detail that makes this home feel like a retreat every single day.

Located on a large lot overlooking a scenic pond in an airport community, this contemporary home maximizes the view with three curved window walls that reach out to enclose the flower-filled back yard. The understated front entry leads into a cherry and green marble foyer just behind the fireplace. As you continue into the house, the soaring family room ceiling revolves around a stone and cherry fireplace as its focal point opposite the two story wall of windows. The open floor plan provides a comfortable setting for entertaining, warmed by cherry woodwork and custom cabinetry. The exterior palette combines cedar and stone, with green clad windows to complement its rustic setting.
