Colonial Craft Kitchens, Inc
Desiring a whimsical French Country style with a twist, we used playful yet sophisticated colors. A creamy, whipped butter, color was paired with a burnt orange to create contrast and interest. The orange is unexpected- introducing the whimsical flare the client was after. This small galley kitchen is packed to the brim with features. Photos by Andy Warren

Exterior Worlds Landscaping & Design
A couple by the name of Claire and Dan Boyles commissioned Exterior Worlds to develop their back yard along the lines of a French Country garden design. They had recently designed and built a French Colonial style house. Claire had been very involved in the architectural design, and she communicated extensively her expectations for the landscape.
The aesthetic we ultimately created for them was not a traditional French country garden per se, but instead was a variation on the symmetry, color, and sense of formality associated with this design. The most notable feature that we added to the estate was a custom swimming pool installed just to the rear of the home. It emphasized linearity, complimentary right angles, and it featured a luxury spa and pool fountain. We built the coping around the pool out of limestone, and we used concrete pavers to build the custom pool patio. We then added French pottery in various locations around the patio to balance the stonework against the look and structure of the home.
We added a formal garden parallel to the pool to reflect its linear movement. Like most French country gardens, this design is bordered by sheered bushes and emphasizes straight lines, angles, and symmetry. One very interesting thing about this garden is that it is consist entirely of various shades of green, which lends itself well to the sense of a French estate. The garden is bordered by a taupe colored cedar fence that compliments the color of the stonework.
Just around the corner from the back entrance to the house, there lies a double-door entrance to the master bedroom. This was an ideal place to build a small patio for the Boyles to use as a private seating area in the early mornings and evenings. We deviated slightly from strict linearity and symmetry by adding pavers that ran out like steps from the patio into the grass. We then planted boxwood hedges around the patio, which are common in French country garden design and combine an Old World sensibility with a morning garden setting.
We then completed this portion of the project by adding rosemary and mondo grass as ground cover to the space between the patio, the corner of the house, and the back wall that frames the yard. This design is derivative of those found in morning gardens, and it provides the Boyles with a place where they can step directly from their bedroom into a private outdoor space and enjoy the early mornings and evenings.
We further develop the sense of a morning garden seating area; we deviated slightly from the strict linear forms of the rest of the landscape by adding pavers that ran like steps from the patio and out into the grass. We also planted rosemary and mondo grass as ground cover to the space between the patio, the corner of the house, and the back wall that borders this portion of the yard.
We then landscaped the front of the home with a continuing symmetry reminiscent of French country garden design. We wanted to establish a sense of grand entrance to the home, so we built a stone walkway that ran all the way from the sidewalk and then fanned out parallel to the covered porch that centers on the front door and large front windows of the house. To further develop the sense of a French country estate, we planted a small parterre garden that can be seen and enjoyed from the left side of the porch.
On the other side of house, we built the Boyles a circular motorcourt around a large oak tree surrounded by lush San Augustine grass. We had to employ special tree preservation techniques to build above the root zone of the tree. The motorcourt was then treated with a concrete-acid finish that compliments the brick in the home. For the parking area, we used limestone gravel chips.
French country garden design is traditionally viewed as a very formal style intended to fill a significant portion of a yard or landscape. The genius of the Boyles project lay not in strict adherence to tradition, but rather in adapting its basic principles to the architecture of the home and the geometry of the surrounding landscape.
For more the 20 years Exterior Worlds has specialized in servicing many of Houston's fine neighborhoods.

Dynamic Garage Door
A French Château style home Marie Antoinette herself would have been envious of! This Newport Beach, CA residence is truly a Mini-Versailles! Dynamic Garage Door, as a company, was commissioned to custom design, handcraft and install garage doors, gates and shutters. All architectural elements were to follow the customer's detailed taste including the hand-forged custom hardware which we so gracefully put together to make this custom garage door, garden gate and shutter project happen. Located in an upscale track home community, the detailed upgrades on this home represent unique luxury and nothing to do with a run-of-the-mill track home. The custom window shutter design and paint color were carefully selected to harmonize with the home's architecture and color scheme.
Custom Garage Doors - The custom garage doors were designed in traditional style typically known as the carriage house door, it is a traditional design that complements a variety of architectural styles including this French Château in the middle of Newport Beach, CA. These type of carriage house garage doors are often times intermingled with Cape Cod Architecture, Craftsman Bungalow Style, Coastal Cottages and even some modern day applications with very minimal design modifications to suit the project at hand. With our customization expertise, we can custom-design a unique carriage house garage door style that will simply add beauty, curve appeal and architectural taste to your custom or track home.
Custom Architectural Garden Gates - Garden gates are by far an architectural element that is highly overseen particularly in landscaping projects. This French Château owner hired an outstanding landscaping architect with a keen taste for luxurious French Gardens. When Dynamic Garage Door was commissioned to custom-design, handcraft and install the garden and courtyard gates of this home the details were precise, unyielding and very specific! Designing the garden gates for this home was a bit of a challenge but thanks to our design taste, skilled craftsmanship and technical knowledge we were able to craft custom garden gates that were as gorgeous as the landscaping elements selected by the landscape architect.
Custom Architectural Shutters - Without a doubt, window shutters are a must in certain architectural style such as this Newport Beach, CA French Style Château. Selecting the right hand-forged hardware is certainly of essence to make the minimalistic raised-panel shutters style. Selecting the right colors to make them pop against the soft gray-painted walls and other variations of gray made these shutters an addition that spelled, success! The homeowner was extremely happy, the landscape architect ecstatic and Dynamic Garage Door - simply proud!
