Fred Parker Company, Inc.“EURO-LAKEVIEW ESTATE”
This beautifully wooded lake-side estate is owned by a very special couple who contacted the Fred Parker Company design-build team from the company’s Houzz.com professional website profile. The owners were interviewing design-build firms, and Custom Builder and AIBD Building Designer Ron Parker and ASID Interior Designer Lila Parker connected with this special couple on their first appointment. The couple was recently married and both had survived the loss of their spouse in years past. Ron and Lila accepted this as a very special opportunity to fulfill the owner’s dreams for this home through taking a fresh and very unique approach to this amazing residence and property.
The incredible home was originally designed and built by the husband for his family. Ron and Lila understood the importance of honoring and respecting the significance of these memories. The wife had a beautifully restored home on White Rock Lake and desired for the design and feel of her existing home to be incorporated with the architecture and style of this home to be renovated. The Parker’s design / build team embraced this tremendous opportunity and were awarded the contracts for design and construction.
Additions were created to expand the Kitchen and Dining Area overlooking the lake. A beautiful European style kitchen was designed to include flush inset and stained cabinets; quartz counters with a “waterfall effect” at the island and serving bar; significant cabinet and storage details; large and expansive Andersen Windows and Patio Doors, custom wood beams, and oversized porcelain tile flooring. The Family Area was redesigned with a custom entertainment center and new Andersen Doors and Windows. Other remodeling and interior design upgrades were completed in the home including converting the existing Dining Room and Butler’s Pantry into a Library and Reading Area, and remodeling the Powder Room to include a free-standing contemporary vanity. Changes and upgrades were also made to the Study and Master Bath. A large patio was built with stone retaining walls, borders, planters, and steps leading to the beautifully terraced yard.
This project also included a quaint and refreshing detached Art Room addition with cathedral ceiling, nestled in the trees overlooking the lake. A new two-car garage addition with storage closets was also added to the existing garage. Due to the proximately of these additions to the lake, special permission and critical guidelines were required by the Corps of Engineers and local city building authorities. These legal requirements created design, engineering, and building challenges which were approved and completed as required.
Ron and Lila Parker and the Fred Parker Company Design / Build Team are extremely proud of the work that was achieved to redesign, renovate, and update this amazing estate for this fine couple and their families. Ron’s personal mission statement “To meet or exceed the client’s expectations and end with a good relationship” was certainly tested but he believes this was respectively achieved as indicated by the client’s eloquent “Five-Star Houzz Review”.

Paragon Pools20 Fabulous Pool Designs Under 600 sq feet of Water Surface Area
Custom pools are a much-desired amenity in Southern Nevada, however in accordance with the 2022 water use ordinance, new residential pools may NOT exceed 600 sq ft of water surface area. The square footage includes a total of the pool, spa, and any infinity-edge troughs where applicable. And, there is also a ban on independent water features.
Paragon Pools’ VP & Chief Design Executive Joseph A Vassallo, CBP provides 20 pool designs under 600sq ft as an inspiration for homeowners.
Excerpt from the SNWA website: Residential pool size limits
Ongoing drought and climate change conditions continue to affect water levels in Lake Mead – Southern Nevada's primary water supply. As a result, the federal government declared a shortage on the Colorado River, reducing Southern Nevada's available water supply by 8.1 billion gallons, and additional reductions are expected in the coming years.
To help manage these water supply constraints, the Southern Nevada Water Authority approved a resolution in July 2022 that supports a 600-square-foot surface area limit on new residential pools. The Las Vegas Valley Water District and other local jurisdictions approved this change shortly thereafter with rule and code changes. This measure will help reduce consumptive water use associated with evaporative water loss, targeting savings from the top 25 percent of new pools constructed.

JWLaCrosse ArchitectThis "jewel box" of a room was photographed for the book In with the Old, classic decor from A to Z by author Jennifer Boles -founder of www.thepeakofchic.blogspot.com. The room is featured in the chapter on Candlelight
Hanging between the two mirrored windows is the portrait is of the Reverend Christopher Swainson circa 1799. Rev. Swainson was the private tutor to the second Earl of Powis, his brother Robert Clive, and their sister Charlotte Florentia Clive, the future Duchess of Northumberland -governess to Queen Victoria- The plant Clivia was named in her honor. Surprisingly the Reverend was found in a local thrift shop just outside of Atlanta. His identity was determined after deciphering faint writing on the back of the frame.
The chinoiserie chippendale styled etageres, once owned by Eleanor Stout McRae, display an assortment of blue & white porcelain. While not of any great quality they never the less give great effect to the decor. The draperies -festoon blinds or ballon shades, depending on which side of the Atlantic you reside - were fashioned in the 18th century manner. The fabric is green silk & wool moreen, it was salvaged from draperies pulled down from the former home of Virginia Carroll Crawford.
The random width american black walnut flooring was salvaged from "Boxwood" in Ansley Park, built in 1914 for Mr. & Mrs. James Swann Floyd. The flooring was originally installed in 1928 for the wedding of their daughter Frances to Emory Cocke. The Floyd's were great entertainers and held many lavish parties. If those floors could talk. Sadly Boxwood was demolished in 2014. Jonathan pulled up each board himself, chiseling out every walnut peg, and butterfly joint, behind which was a steel screw. After the screws were removed the boards. also nailed down, had to be pried up with a crowbar. It was a lengthy process, and all done in the early summer with no air conditioning. It was well worth it.
The trimwork is all new but leftover from another job.
The whole project is an example of being resourceful, some could even say being environmentally conscious.

UserIn the early days of the 3d architectural visualisation studio, the focus was on creating photo-realistic images of buildings that didn't yet exist. This allowed potential buyers or renters to see what their future home or office would look like.
Nowadays, the role of the 3d architectural visualizer has evolved. While still involved in the sale or rental of property, they are also heavily involved in the design process. By using 3d architectural visualization, architects and designers can explore different design options and make sure that the final product meets the needs of the client.
In this blog post, we will take a look at a recent project by a 3d architectural visualizer - the Visualize a Residential Colony in Meridian Idaho.
A 3D architectural visualisation is an important tool for architects and engineers. It allows them to create realistic images of their designs, which can be used to present their ideas to clients or investors.
The studio Visualize was commissioned to create a 3D visualisation of a proposed residential colony in Meridian, Idaho. The colony will be built on a site that is currently occupied by a golf course.
The studio used a variety of software to create the visualisation, including 3ds Max, V-Ray, and Photoshop. The finished product is a realistic and accurate representation of the proposed colony.
The 3D visualisation has been used to convince the local authorities to approve the project. It has also been used to help raise investment for the colony.
