Our latest project, Fish Camp, on Longboat Key, FL. This home was designed around tight zoning restrictions while meeting the FEMA V-zone requirement. It is registered with LEED and is expected to be Platinum certified. It is rated EnergyStar v. 3.1 with a HERS index of 50. The design is a modern take on the Key West vernacular so as to keep with the neighboring historic homes in the area. Ryan Gamma Photography

This amazing John’s Island custom home epitomizes Lowcountry living with a large front porch, backyard entertainment spaces, views of the intercoastal waterways and charming design elements that invite you into the space. With solid construction, Gable brackets, Jeld-Wen impact rated dark bronze vinyl windows, white Hardie siding, the homeowners are ready for any type of Coastal weather. The custom exterior details translate seamlessly into the interior of the home. Some of the high-end design choices include crown molding, shiplap, cable hand rails on the stairs, unique built-ins in the living room which are mimicked on the ceiling of the master, custom cedar barn doors, floating countertops made from solid hickory live edge wood, Carrera marble tile, electronic valve-controlled showers, and a shiplap kitchen hood. As entertainers, the homeowners embraced the concept of combining two living spaces into one, which was made possible by installing a PGT sliding door. These doors slide back into themselves, opening up the indoors to the outdoor deck space with fireplace. Guests also enjoy waterway views made possible by the Juliet balcony off the front bedroom of the home, and the very large man-cave under the home.

The exterior of the home features stucco simulated clapboard siding, welded aluminum balcony railings, welded aluminum balcony panels, aluminum shutter doors, a standing seam metal roof, grey marble driveway over concrete slab, and Mahogany front doors.

This lovely little modern farmhouse is located at the base of the foothills in one of Boulder’s most prized neighborhoods. Tucked onto a challenging narrow lot, this inviting and sustainably designed 2400 sf., 4 bedroom home lives much larger than its compact form. The open floor plan and vaulted ceilings of the Great room, kitchen and dining room lead to a beautiful covered back patio and lush, private back yard. These rooms are flooded with natural light and blend a warm Colorado material palette and heavy timber accents with a modern sensibility. A lyrical open-riser steel and wood stair floats above the baby grand in the center of the home and takes you to three bedrooms on the second floor. The Master has a covered balcony with exposed beamwork & warm Beetle-kill pine soffits, framing their million-dollar view of the Flatirons. Its simple and familiar style is a modern twist on a classic farmhouse vernacular. The stone, Hardie board siding and standing seam metal roofing create a resilient and low-maintenance shell. The alley-loaded home has a solar-panel covered garage that was custom designed for the family’s active & athletic lifestyle (aka “lots of toys”). The front yard is a local food & water-wise Master-class, with beautiful rain-chains delivering roof run-off straight to the family garden.

A private primary suite balcony offers an elevated outdoor retreat, finished in large-format cement-look porcelain tile against Iron Grey Hardie lap siding. Black-framed Pella sliders connect the space seamlessly to the suite, while a sleek metal railing keeps sightlines open to the treetops. Charcoal lounge seating, a round side table, potted greenery, and matte black wall sconces create a calm, refined spot to unwind.
