Our Clients, the proud owners of a landmark 1860’s era Italianate home, desired to greatly improve their daily ingress and egress experience. With a growing young family, the lack of a proper entry area and attached garage was something they wanted to address. They also needed a guest suite to accommodate frequent out-of-town guests and visitors. But in the homeowner’s own words, “He didn’t want to be known as the guy who ‘screwed up’ this beautiful old home”. Our design challenge was to provide the needed space of a significant addition, but do so in a manner that would respect the historic home. Our design solution lay in providing a “hyphen”: a multi-functional daily entry breezeway connector linking the main house with a new garage and in-law suite above.

The family living room/great room embodies rustic mountain luxury, defined by reclaimed wood beams, textured wall planks, and indigenous stone details. Warm amber lighting enhances the natural materials, creating a cozy yet elevated atmosphere for gathering and relaxation. Thoughtfully designed, the space reflects the surrounding beauty of Cashiers while feeling like a true mountain retreat. J,Weiland
