Our MOSS customers loved their Alexandria location, but, after years of living in the 405 square foot home, knew they wanted to add a significant amount of space to stay comfortable for the long term. MOSS worked with our customer to construct a “pop top” (essentially, an entire second floor with 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms) and push out the main floor of the home to give the homeowners a much larger 1183 square feet of living space (including a new kitchen and screened porch). Knowing that our customers wanted plenty of sunlight and also convenient spaces for their pets, MOSS worked with them to design the home to allow for large windows and features such as a a built in dog bowl faucet and doggy doors.

Designed to complement Alys Beach’s signature architectural style, these elements contribute to the project’s clean, coastal aesthetic while meeting rigorous structural and environmental requirements.

This young family had just moved to Washington State and was looking to create a long term home out of the house they purchased. One of the goals was to create a grand entryway where the living room was previously, increase master bathroom size and function throughout. We began by creating a new layout which revised the front living room by adding about 100 sqft to the front, expanding the office, relocating a powder bathroom, expanding the kitchen footprint, and entirely reconfiguring the master bathroom and bedroom. From there, we honed in on materials that felt welcoming and warm while making sure to keep the space nice and bright as the home is surrounded by evergreens. The happy family is now able to enjoy their modified space which suites their needs better than the previous layout.

Tucked away in a quiet neighborhood yet minutes from a bustling downtown sits a storybook house. The charm captured our hearts and we knew this family would be long term design clients as they needed to split each project into rooms or even sections of each room. One of the first steps was ripping out 40 year old carpet and installing timeless hardwoods starting in the "formal family room". Our client wanted to create a balance of family fun and livable luxury. Keep watching as we continue the design makeover throughout this entire home.

This project transformed an existing outdoor space into a functional, all-season retreat with the addition of a custom waterproof pergola system. Built using white UCS panels with an integrated gutter, the structure provides reliable weather protection while maintaining a clean, modern aesthetic.
The pergola was constructed on the home’s existing 6x6 pressure-treated posts, originally part of a trellis system, allowing for an efficient build while preserving the existing framework. Structural flexibility was built into the design, including provisions for an additional support post and potential height adjustments to ensure long-term performance and adaptability.
To enhance comfort and usability, integrated lighting and a patio heater were added, extending the functionality of the space into the evening and cooler months.
The end result is a refined outdoor living area that combines durability, protection from the elements, and year-round comfort—all while seamlessly blending with the home’s existing structure.
