In a private hallway behind the kitchen, a golden stained glass frame was designed to accentuate a treasured stained glass piece that was a gift from the owners' five children. It features five of their favorite flower, Zinnias, a perpetual reminder of the joy and blessings they’ve received from their closely-knit family. alise o'brien photography

This is a custom printed dry erase film installed in a kids bedroom. The dry erase film allows for coloring the flowers and easily erasing the marker ink to start over if needed.

The exterior face lift included Hardie board siding and MiraTEC trim, decorative metal railing on the porch, landscaping and a custom mailbox. The concrete paver driveway completes this beautiful project.

Trying to find a quiet corner in one's house for an office can be tough, but it also can be an adventure! Reworking spaces in our homes so that they work better for our families as they grow and change is something we all need to do from time to time-- and it can give your house a new lease on life. One room that took on a new identity in this old farmhouse was the third floor attic space--a room that is much like a treehouse with its small footprint, high perch, lofty views of the landscape, and sloping ceiling. The space has been many things over the past two decades- a bedroom, a guest room, a hang-out for kids... but NOW it is the 'world headquarters' for my client's business. :) Adding all the funky touches that make it a cozy personal space made all the difference...like lots of live green plants, vintage original artwork, architectural salvage window sashes, a repurposed and repainted dresser from the 1940's, and, of course, my client's favorite photos.

Sunroom - traditional sunroom idea in New York

Having a window in your hallway or stairway allows for natural light to enter your home. Windows make these small or narrow places look bigger and brighter. But plain glass doesn't really do too much to enhance your interior design. Our clients wanted a unique way to decorate their staircase so they decided to install this traditional styled stained glass window. The clear color of the glass also allows them freedom if they decide to redecorate or sell their home in the future.

A fun, inviting and low-maintenance outdoor living space for both adults and children to enjoy, in Watkinsville, GA. Patio with gas-fueled outdoor fireplace and deck, designed to work a variety of elements into a small parcel of backyard and to allow for access from the 2nd floor kitchen of this home in Watkinsville, GA. As the clients' wish list also included an outdoor kitchen, the necessary gas and drainage fittings were built into the destined spot, ready for the future addition of a grill and sink. The brick for the walls and fireplace was carefully selected to match the house, while completing the Oklahoma flagstone patio floor and stone cap. All stone and brick was hand-cut and laid by the City Garden Co install team. Plants and trees were added as a second phase to fit in with budget and optimal planting season. ZoomWorks
