The client wanted a deck to be connected to the rest of the yard and transition to the upper deck 10ft of grade to the patio on grade. The centrally located circular kitchen area services both the patio and the upper deck and gives lots of options whether it’s just the family or a party for 50. Minimizing rails and stairs during the transition from the upper deck to the lower deck on grade was critical to the clients. Adding the kitchen to the project without obstructing the view out the rear patio doors was also an important request from the client. The WOLF PVC Black Walnut accents and fascia really sets off the Driftwood field. Dutch Quality weathered ledge stone was used in the kitchen with a granite counter. Custom welded aluminum rails and EP Henry Bristol pavers are also featured. The built in flower beds extend the feel of the patio area and allow for plantings to be added. This project turned an unusable back yard and disconnected elevated deck into cohesive multi-level living space.

Siting is critical for both proper daylighting and unity with the natural features of the site. We sited this house on a little knoll facing fields and a bordering creek. Great solar access made it easy to achieve net zero.

Our client wanted to improve curb appeal at the front of their home and create a few focal points in the backyard. It was also critical that the new landscaping features be easy to maintain, as the homeowner has mobility issues. We added raised flower beds with Navascape wallstone retaining walls that complimented the home’s exterior. We installed an additional flower bed around the backyard shed and created a focal point with a tree and additional small flower bed.

A master bedroom is a bedroom in a house or apartment that is typically the largest bedroom and designated for the head of the household. It is usually the most luxurious and comfortable bedroom, often featuring an en-suite bathroom, walk-in closet, and other amenities. The term "master bedroom" has been criticized in recent years for being potentially insensitive and exclusionary, and many real estate professionals and builders are now using alternative terms such as "primary bedroom" or "owner's suite."

The clean lines of a rectangular pool form an elegant connection between an existing residence and its natural surroundings by way of critical alignments. Set into a gently sloping hillside, the program features a perimeter sitting wall and plantings that add colorful impressions while helping to define various lounge areas, or rooms, and walkways, or hallways, around the pool.

This property came with a house which proved ill-matched to our clients’ needs but which nestled neatly amid beautiful live oaks. In choosing to commission a new home, they asked that it also tuck under the limbs of the oaks and maintain a subdued presence to the street. Extraordinary efforts such as cantilevered floors and even bridging over critical root zones allow the design to be truly fitted to the site and to co-exist with the trees, the grandest of which is the focal point of the entry courtyard. Of equal importance to the trees and view was to provide, conversely, for walls to display 35 paintings and numerous books. From form to smallest detail, the house is quiet and subtle.
