Featuring breathtaking, unobstructed views of the Brooklyn Bridge to the Statue of Liberty; the Pierhouse at Brooklyn Bridge Park is one of the most desired residences in Brooklyn.
The condo’s soaring floor to ceiling windows are warmed with reclaimed heartwood pine floors; while cold-rolled, blackened steel stairs, railings, and accents add an industrial touch. You’ll find the chandelier brings in an organic element, inspired by the budding park trees visible from the windows.
Calacutta Tucci marble countertops and book-matched backsplashes juxtaposed by solid walnut kitchen cabinets (locally sourced) work together seamlessly to create the luxurious open plan interior. Clean lined neutral tone furniture and pops of color, via accent chairs and artwork, balance the high-end, sophisticated look with the welcoming, comfortable feel. The Powder Room and bathrooms are finished with Statuary Marble and custom walnut and nickel vanities. From high-efficiency LED lighting to energy-efficient solar shades, the condo was also designed with energy and the environment in mind.

A custom D1 Entry Door flanked by substantial sidelights was designed in a bold rust color to highlight the entrance to the home and provide a sense of welcoming. The vibrant entrance sets a tone of excitement and vivacity that is carried throughout the home. A combination of cedar, concrete, and metal siding grounds the home in its environment, provides architectural interest, and enlists massing to double as an ornament. The overall effect is a design that remains understated among the diverse vegetation but also serves enough eye-catching design elements to delight the senses.

This "Palatial Villa" is an architectural statement, amidst a sprawling country setting. An elegant, modern revival of the Spanish Tudor style, the high-contrast white stucco and black details pop against the natural backdrop.
Round and segmental arches lend an air of European antiquity, and fenestrations are placed providently, to capture picturesque views for the occupants. Massive glass sliding doors and modern high-performance, low-e windows, bathe the interior with natural light and at the same time increase efficiency, with the highest-rated air-leakage and water-penetration resistance.
Inside, the lofty ceilings, rustic beam detailing, and wide-open floor-plan inspire a vast feel. Patterned repetition of dark wood and iron elements unify the interior design, creating a dynamic contrast with the white, plaster faux-finish walls.
A high-efficiency furnace, heat pump, heated floors, and Control 4 automated environmental controls ensure occupant comfort and safety. The kitchen, wine cellar, and adjoining great room flow naturally into an outdoor entertainment area. A private gym and his-and-hers offices round out a long list of luxury amenities.
With thoughtful design and the highest quality craftsmanship in every detail, Palatial Villa stands out as a gleaming jewel, set amongst charming countryside environs.

Embarking on a garage remodeling project is a transformative endeavor that can significantly enhance both the functionality and aesthetics of the space.
By investing in tailored storage solutions such as cabinets, wall-mounted organizers, and overhead racks, one can efficiently declutter the area and create a more organized storage system. Flooring upgrades, such as epoxy coatings or durable tiles, not only improve the garage's appearance but also provide a resilient surface.
Adding custom workbenches or tool storage solutions contributes to a more efficient and user-friendly workspace. Additionally, incorporating proper lighting and ventilation ensures a well-lit and comfortable environment.
A remodeled garage not only increases property value but also opens up possibilities for alternative uses, such as a home gym, workshop, or hobby space, making it a worthwhile investment for both practicality and lifestyle improvement.

This waterfront residence in Tampa, Florida was reimagined to embrace its setting while solving a series of architectural challenges. The homeowners sought a quiet, energy-efficient indoor environment that could still open completely to the outdoors.
Using NanaWall’s aluminum-framed acoustical folding glass wall system, the design delivers seamless transitions and measurable performance. The system achieves up to STC 34 sound control and provides flexible sill options for both interior and exterior applications. Panels fold and stack parallel to the wall, maintaining open sightlines and maximizing usable space.
The result is a home that transforms effortlessly from a private, insulated retreat to an open-air living space connected to the bay — demonstrating how sound control, energy performance, and design aesthetics can coexist beautifully.

Capturing the critical importance of EMF testing, this professional photo showcases a certified inspector using a state-of-the-art EMF meter to measure dirty electricity levels near a home's electrical panel. The meter's digital display glows with clear numerical readings, while the inspector's careful positioning demonstrates proper testing technique for accurate measurements.
Dirty electricity testing is crucial for modern homes because:
Poor power quality can affect both human health and electronic equipment performance. When your home's electrical system carries microsurges and voltage spikes (dirty electricity), it can contribute to headaches, fatigue, and sleep issues. Additionally, sensitive electronics may malfunction or have shortened lifespans when exposed to poor power quality.
Dirty electricity often stems from modern devices like LED lights, smart appliances, solar inverters, and dimmer switches. These technologies, while energy-efficient, can create electrical noise that travels throughout your home's wiring. Professional testing helps identify problematic areas and guides targeted solutions like whole-house filters or circuit-specific interventions.
For families concerned about creating a truly healthy home environment, dirty electricity testing is an essential but often overlooked assessment. Our comprehensive testing services help identify EMF hotspots and power quality issues, allowing us to recommend effective mitigation strategies for a cleaner electrical environment.

Temple Street explores the relationship between architectural character, contemporary living and the enduring appeal of Sydney’s Inner West. The project responds to the scale and identity of its surroundings, seeking a balance between the character of the existing streetscape and the evolving needs of modern residential life.
The architectural approach celebrates the dialogue between old and new, with an emphasis on considered proportions, natural light and a thoughtful connection between interior spaces and the outdoors. Rather than treating the home as a collection of individual rooms, the design aims to create a cohesive living environment that supports everyday rituals, family life and moments of retreat.
The ground floor brings the kitchen, living and dining areas together in an open-plan arrangement, creating a welcoming environment for everyday living and entertaining. Above, the private bedroom spaces provide a sense of retreat, balancing family life with comfort and privacy.
Temple Street reflects an approach to residential architecture that values context, functionality and timelessness. It is an exploration of how thoughtful design can reinterpret the familiar suburban home, creating a contemporary living experience that respects its surroundings while embracing the possibilities of modern architecture.
Through efficient spatial planning, a cohesive architectural expression and a focus on contemporary living, the project celebrates a refined, practical approach to the modern Inner West home.
