The design of this home was driven by the owners’ desire for a three-bedroom waterfront home that showcased the spectacular views and park-like setting. As nature lovers, they wanted their home to be organic, minimize any environmental impact on the sensitive site and embrace nature.
This unique home is sited on a high ridge with a 45° slope to the water on the right and a deep ravine on the left. The five-acre site is completely wooded and tree preservation was a major emphasis. Very few trees were removed and special care was taken to protect the trees and environment throughout the project. To further minimize disturbance, grades were not changed and the home was designed to take full advantage of the site’s natural topography. Oak from the home site was re-purposed for the mantle, powder room counter and select furniture.
The visually powerful twin pavilions were born from the need for level ground and parking on an otherwise challenging site. Fill dirt excavated from the main home provided the foundation. All structures are anchored with a natural stone base and exterior materials include timber framing, fir ceilings, shingle siding, a partial metal roof and corten steel walls. Stone, wood, metal and glass transition the exterior to the interior and large wood windows flood the home with light and showcase the setting. Interior finishes include reclaimed heart pine floors, Douglas fir trim, dry-stacked stone, rustic cherry cabinets and soapstone counters.
Exterior spaces include a timber-framed porch, stone patio with fire pit and commanding views of the Occoquan reservoir. A second porch overlooks the ravine and a breezeway connects the garage to the home.
Numerous energy-saving features have been incorporated, including LED lighting, on-demand gas water heating and special insulation. Smart technology helps manage and control the entire house.

Nestled in the scenic foothills of west Las Vegas, this stunning Toll Brothers development showcases contemporary single-story living at its finest. The home features soaring ceilings and an open-concept floor plan designed to maximize natural light through strategically placed windows that capture breathtaking views from every angle.
The design embraces mid-century modern aesthetics through carefully curated finishes, including rich quartersawn cabinetry, sleek porcelain tile flooring, and elegant quartzite countertops. State-of-the-art smart home technology seamlessly integrates throughout, complemented by designer lighting fixtures that enhance the home's sophisticated ambiance.
Thoughtfully organized interior storage solutions include custom closet systems and built-in cabinetry that maximize both function and style. Currently under construction, the next phase will introduce show-stopping features including a dramatic fireplace accent wall, an integrated wine station, and a cozy corner library nook.
The finishing touches will include luxury automated window treatments, curated accent pieces, and carefully selected furniture that reflects the home's modern sensibility. The outdoor living experience will be equally impressive, featuring a resort-style pool with an elegant fountain feature, surrounded by landscaped corridors with natural grass and thoughtfully chosen plantings that create private outdoor retreats.
This project represents the perfect marriage of contemporary luxury and comfortable living, creating a sophisticated yet welcoming environment for modern homeowners.

This modern green home offers both a vacation destination on Cape Cod near local family members and an opportunity for rental income.
FAMILY ROOTS. A West Coast couple living in the San Francisco Bay Area sought a permanent East Coast vacation home near family members living on Cape Cod. As academic professionals focused on sustainability, they sought a green, energy efficient home that was well-aligned with their values. With no green homes available for sale on Cape Cod, they decided to purchase land near their family and build their own.
SLOPED SITE. Comprised of a 3/4 acre lot nestled in the pines, the steeply sloping terrain called for a plan that embraced and took advantage of the slope. Of equal priority was optimizing solar exposure, preserving privacy from abutters, and creating outdoor living space. The design accomplished these goals with a simple, rectilinear form, offering living space on the both entry and lower/basement levels. The stepped foundation allows for a walk-out basement level with light-filled living space on the down-hill side of the home. The traditional basement on the eastern, up-hill side houses mechanical equipment and a home gym. The house welcomes natural light throughout, captures views of the forest, and delivers entertainment space that connects indoor living space to outdoor deck and dining patio.
MODERN VISION. The clean building form and uncomplicated finishes pay homage to the modern architectural legacy on the outer Cape. Durable and economical fiber cement panels, fixed with aluminum channels, clad the primary form. Cedar clapboards provide a visual accent at the south-facing living room, which extends a single roof plane to cover the entry porch.
SMART USE OF SPACE. On the entry level, the “L”-shaped living, dining, and kitchen space connects to the exterior living, dining, and grilling spaces to effectively double the home’s summertime entertainment area. Placed at the western end of the entry level (where it can retain privacy but still claim expansive downhill views) is the master suite with a built-in study. The lower level has two guest bedrooms, a second full bathroom, and laundry. The flexibility of the space—crucial in a house with a modest footprint—emerges in one of the guest bedrooms, which doubles as home office by opening the barn-style double doors to connect it to the bright, airy open stair leading up to the entry level. Thoughtful design, generous ceiling heights and large windows transform the modest 1,100 sf* footprint into a well-lit, spacious home. *(total finished space is 1800 sf)
RENTAL INCOME. The property works for its owners by netting rental income when the owners are home in San Francisco. The house especially caters to vacationers bound for nearby Mayo Beach and includes an outdoor shower adjacent to the lower level entry door. In contrast to the bare bones cottages that are typically available on the Cape, this home offers prospective tenants a modern aesthetic, paired with luxurious and green features. Durable finishes inside and out will ensure longevity with the heavier use that comes with a rental property.
COMFORT YEAR-ROUND. The home is super-insulated and air-tight, with mechanical ventilation to provide continuous fresh air from the outside. High performance triple-paned windows complement the building enclosure and maximize passive solar gain while ensuring a warm, draft-free winter, even when sitting close to the glass. A properly sized air source heat pump offers efficient heating & cooling, and includes a carefully designed the duct distribution system to provide even comfort throughout the house. The super-insulated envelope allows us to significantly reduce the equipment capacity, duct size, and airflow quantities, while maintaining unparalleled thermal comfort.
ENERGY EFFICIENT. The building’s shell and mechanical systems play instrumental roles in the home’s exceptional performance. The building enclosure reduces the most significant energy glutton: heating. Continuous super-insulation, thorough air sealing, triple-pane windows, and passive solar gain work together to yield a miniscule heating load. All active energy consumers are extremely efficient: an air source heat pump for heating and cooling, a heat pump hot water heater, LED lighting, energy recovery ventilation (ERV), and high efficiency appliances. The result is a home that uses 70% less energy than a similar new home built to code requirements.
OVERALL. The home embodies the owners’ goals and values while comprehensively enabling thermal comfort, energy efficiency, a vacation respite, and supplementary income.

Imagine a contemporary home in Brighton that frames Longs Peak like a picture, turning everyday views into inspiration. Ivanhoe Street is a modern family retreat on a corner lot, with a big private backyard for play and gatherings – all while fitting neighborhood rules perfectly.
The family sought a home that captured Rocky Mountain beauty, with a private yard and modern perks like open stairs, big windows, and spaces that grow with them over time.
Tough HOA rules, like roof pitches, could have limited the vision, but we designed around them to keep the home stylish and functional without compromise.
The core tilts the home for optimal views, creating airy spaces with open stairs and a catwalk that connects everything. It's a blend of luxury and practicality, from high ceilings to patios that handle any weather.
Custom-built to meet guidelines, using durable methods that ensure strength and elegance in Colorado's setting.
Main floor offers a 4-car garage, great room with fireplace and bar, custom kitchen, and main-level master for ease. Upstairs, a catwalk leads to the master with fireplace and closet, plus kids' rooms in their own wing for privacy.
From Spring 2023, Ivanhoe Street has become a luxurious family haven that embraces nature and daily life. It offers views, space, and smart design for lasting comfort and joy in the Rockies.

This 3,850-square-foot single-family home in New Jersey exemplifies modern design and architectural ingenuity. Built on a tight lot with stringent zoning regulations, the project posed unique challenges that were met with innovative solutions to deliver a truly remarkable residence tailored for modern home enthusiasts.

A thoughtful combination of materials—concrete, stucco, wood, and glass—come together to craft a sleek yet inviting aesthetic. Each material was carefully selected and positioned to enhance the overall structure and functionality of the house while contributing to its contemporary appeal.
One of the standout architectural features includes impressive cantilevers that not only enhance the home’s visual impact but also address complex structural challenges with sophistication. These bold design choices create a feeling of weightlessness and add to the dynamic character of the residence.
Despite the tight lot constraints, the layout maximizes every corner of the space without compromising comfort or style. A practical yet elegant floor plan ensures a sense of openness and fluidity throughout, providing ample areas for family living, entertaining, and relaxation.
This project demonstrates that thoughtful design and strategic engineering can overcome restrictive site limitations and zoning challenges to deliver a home that is both functional and stunningly modern. It is a testament to the possibilities of modern architecture and a celebration of creativity, engineering, and craftsmanship.
