We found the space we needed to expand the kitchen footprint by relocating a powder room. This extra floor space enabled us to add this extra large, granite topped island with seating for 4-6. We relocated the refrigerator and double oven along the wall where the powder room and a pantry closet were formerly situated. To compensate for the lost storage closet, we flanked the appliances with ample semi-custom cabinetry to provide plenty of storage for pots, pans, spices and other non-perishables.

The house is located in a quiet green area, not far from the main streets of the city. Due to the attractiveness of the area, the housing development pattern is dense with small outdoor spaces. The design is formed by the horizontal lines of large low-lying decks and balconies, which compensates for the absence of a large outdoor space. At the request of the customer, the double garage is designed open, with the possibility of building walls in the future. Finishing materials include decorative stucco, clinker bricks and wood.

The building is essentially an 8×12 saltbox with an added four-foot porch. A dormer is attached to the front and extended out over the porch. Fabulous roofline. Four opening barn sash windows, a single 3’ door and a workbench give this cottage its uniqueness. The building in the picture has been finished off with special touches; including optional white cedar shingle siding and a set of stairs to compensate for the slope of the site.

Pondless Waterfall Pondless Waterfalls are simply a re-circulating waterfall and/or stream without the presence of a pond. You can enjoy the sight and sound of running water without the maintenance of a pond. The waterfall is undoubtedly the most beautiful and favored feature in a water garden. If space is lacking in your yard or you have safety concerns with a pond, go Pondless! The name basically explains it all. It’s a waterfall and stream, without the pond. So why would you want a waterfall without a pond? The truth is that a Pondless Waterfall isn’t for everyone, but it can be a great alternative for someone who isn’t quite sure if a pond is right for their family. Safety Because there is no pool of water, a Pondless Waterfall is a great option if you are concerned about safety issues associated with a traditional pond. Cost Cost can be a big factor when considering the type of pond you want to build. In most cases, the price of a Pondless waterfall will be less than a pond, because there is less labor involved, as well as less rock and materials. Operating costs are also less. Because you’re not dealing with an established ecosystem, it’s not necessary to run the pump 24/7. Space The small size of the Pondless Waterfall means you can build and enjoy a beautiful waterfall anywhere in you yard. Maintenance - Taking care of your Pondless Waterfall is easy. Filling the reservoir every few weeks to compensate for water loss because of evaporation is all that’s required. Flexibility Perhaps the best part of the Pondless Waterfall is the possibility for the future. If you change your mind later, wishing you’d build a pond, that’s ok! If you leave enough room around the base of the waterfall, it’s easy to add a pond onto a Pondless Waterfall. Complete System It might be difficult to imagine a waterfall and stream without a pond. Where does the water go? A Pondless Waterfall works much like a regular pond. The hole, deeper than a normal pond, is dug then lined with rock and gravel, and filled with water. The water is then circulated from beneath the rocks and gravel by a pump that sits on the bottom, inside a Snorkel Vault and Centipede Module. A pipe runs from there up to a BioFalls Filter and into an overflowing waterfall, where it falls back into the reservoir. Since the water level never pools above the level of the rock and gravel fill, it give the appearance of a waterfall without a pond, when in fact, the “pond” is there but not visible. The Pondless Waterfall has made many water-lovers who were previously unable to indulge in the sweet sounds of falling water, very happy. It’s a great alternative for those who are trying to get their feet wet, or looking to fit a little bit of paradise into their own backyard. In other words, when all else fails … go Pondless!

Elevated high above Cuttyhunk Harbor, with views of the Elizabeth Islands chain and Martha’s Vineyard, this mini compound was designed for energy efficiency, durability and low maintenance. The two bedroom main house has an 8’ square, glass block, center skylight which floods the core of the structure with natural light to compensate for the deep covered porches surrounding the living space. A studio guest cottage and workshop building protect and frame the south facing patio. Solar panels line the roof of the south facing porch.

This house is ideally located in the woods, backing up to the Cambridge reservoir in Waltham. But the beautiful views and secluded outdoor spaces could not compensate for the 1970’s interiors, particularly the master bathroom and kitchen, which lacked distinction and needed to be updated. The new cabinets and locally quarried stone counters modernized and greatly enhanced the kitchen without the expense of relocating the appliances or the sink.
