The Home
Nestled in Jackson Ranch, Thurston House welcomes you to experience the solace and comfort of this warm and peaceful home.
As you step past the barnwood accented exterior, you enter a refined rustic interior with a barnwood wall and century-old beams
gracing the great room. Durable, luxury, vinyl, tile flooring leads you further in, past a front office with ample sunlight. Relax as you gaze upon the Front Range, through the pines, from the great room - while a wood-burning fire crackles nearby. Continue into the spacious kitchen, complete with custom cabinets and more amazing views. An expansive walk-in pantry gives way to an oversized garage, a builder and hobbyist’s dream space. Steps away from the kitchen, the master bedroom envelops you, providing those awe-inspiring views, while balancing privacy in the pines.
Whether you seek to entertain or to escape, the downstairs of Thurston House delivers. The stairs open to a lounge, complete with a
wood-burning fireplace and abundant screen space, while a wet bar is tucked away for close conversation. Additional bedrooms offer
comfort and privacy for overnight guests. A home gym leads to the privacy of your backyard among the pines, with mountain views to
motivate you.

The Interior Design
Thurston House brings a feeling of warmth, comfort and hospitality. Modern accents elevate your living experience by highlighting the character of century-old, hand-hewn beams and barnwood. A luxurious freestanding bathtub and Euro-style shower in the master bathroom encourage you to relax and recharge in your own spa-like retreat. Energy efficient HVAC and water systems, appliances and windows minimize your footprint. Durable flooring offers stability and longevity, and hand trowel-finished drywall with reclaimed wood accents provide a warm background for your life. The open floor plan lends itself to entertaining, and the views of the Front Range through the pines are enticing. These same spaces also feel private and individual. Whether training in the home gym for your next marathon, building your dream canoe in the garage, or relaxing while you listen to the crackle of a fire in your fireplace accented by those hand-hewn beams, Thurston House is a stunning place to call home.

Retractable Screens, also known as Roll-up Screens and Vertical Rolling Screens are completely customized to meet the needs of the space.
Easy to see through and completely retractable, exterior Retractable Screens create a cool, comfortable, insect-free environment without sacrificing your view. Designed to provide superior solar protection, they mitigate UV damage, optimize comfort and provide daytime privacy even in windy settings.
Extra sun control can be achieved by increasing thread counts and weave density. Retractable Solar Shades provide energy-efficient sun shading, shelter against bugs and mosquitoes, climate control and rain/wind reduction while allowing outward visibility. Depending on screen fabric selection, our solar shade fabric selections are capable of blocking up to 95% of ultra-violet (UV) rays–saving up to 50% of the energy used to heat and cool homes.
Motorize Retractable Screens provide control at the touch of a button. Somfy Motors allow activation by wall mounted toggle switch or several different types of remote control options. These Retractable Screens will stop at upper and lower limits and are able to stop any where along the travel path on command.
Optional Manual Override features allow for operation in case of power outage for motorized units. Manual Operations are available on most models.
Motorized Retractable Screens equipped with Somfy RTS motors may be upgraded for use in Smart Homes and operated via Smartphone or other Mobile Devices.
Retractable Screens should be retracted when not in use. The screens are raised and housed inside the aluminum housing. All major components of the system are powder coated aluminum for durability, ease of operations, and longevity. All Retractable Screens from Shade & Shutter Systems come with a 5 year Warranty, to include the Somfy Motor.
Retractable Screens offer wind and rain abatement for breezy days. Many of our clients enjoy outdoor patio settings along coastal areas and beach front properties. Those areas also endure regular breezes that can be knocked down with retractable Screens for a more enjoyable experience. Although these screens are not designed for storm protection, winds to 40 mph are easily abated.
If you would like more information about Retractable Screens, our Product Specialists can be reached at 800-522-1599.

The intrigue of the home’s powerful facade lies in the locally sourced puddingstone archway inviting you in. The custom designed bronze door with leaded sidelights opens into the foyer from underneath the covered walkway to the right, in essence hidden from the street. The wide-open central expanse allows one a sneak preview of the stone patio and back yard beyond, highlighting the 120-foot-tall Beech tree that has
been thriving on the site for over two hundred years. The challenge of designing this 6,300 square foot home and pool house was the narrow but deep one-acre lot. John Meyer’s master planning of a strong front elevation hides the “sideways configuration” of the floorplan. To the left
of the archway is a 3-car garage below an entertainment room, with a master bedroom suite on the top floor bridging the main house behind the central eyebrow over the archway.
The sense of having been on the site for decades was the intent of the design abundant in the use of stone and masonry. The carved stonework shapes the main and secondary archways as full ovals. Slate detailing is set
between the sunburst oval window, balancing interest with the keystones framing the five windows across the bridge. Rough cut boulders give weight to the structure’s base, while straight runs of stone border the shingles under the roof’s eaves and shaped stones guide corner edges downward along the retaining walls. The granite steps and bluestone patio lead one back to the lighted base of the Beech tree, terrace and on-axis pool area beyond. The roof is double thick slate, and the circular drive is crushed stone with granite edging. Like the longevity of the Beech tree, this unique design will stand proudly in its neighborhood for years to come.

What happens when we design for teenagers? It requires a blend of sensitivity, creativity, and long-term thinking. This project was all about creating a bedroom that could evolve with a young girl, not just for today, but for the next decade and beyond.
Instead of following fleeting trends, we focused on a timeless and versatile design. The space was carefully curated using a neutral palette of whites and off-whites, providing a calming atmosphere and a flexible foundation for the years to come. Soft textures and layered materials added warmth and depth without relying on bold colors or patterns.
One of the standout elements is a recycled desk, transformed with a creative touch. By updating the handles and adding an arched mirror, it became a multifunctional piece, perfect for both study and self-care. This approach not only adds character, but also promotes sustainability and smart use of resources.
At PIEKNO Studio, we believe that design should reflect the personality and needs of the client, while offering elegance, comfort, and longevity. This project is a reflection of that vision.

This floral-filled girls’ room is every bit as charming as its name. Designed in soft shades of blue, pink, green, and white, the space feels timeless and playful all at once. Delicate bow details and blooming patterns add a touch of sweetness, while traditional elements give the room a sense of grace and longevity. Perfect for a little girl to grow into, Bluebells & Bows is a whimsical, feminine space rooted in classic design.

The completed project delivers a refreshed, highly durable exterior that respects the character of the Green Lake neighborhood while significantly improving performance, longevity, and usability. Through careful planning, quality materials, and attention to detail, Synapse transformed both the primary residence and ADU into a cohesive, modernized property designed to last.
This project highlights the value of combining thoughtful design, full-envelope construction, and craft-driven execution from start to finish. Contact Synapse Construction for any of your exterior remodeling needs.

A bespoke walk-in dressing room is a dream that so many aspire to. In order to manifest this particular client’s vision, we constructed a marvellously modern Birch Plywood custom closet space, incorporating a combination of spacious drawers and hanging storage. The natural warmth of the featured wood is complemented with paint in Fired Earth Skylon Grey.
Of course, aside from a stylish aesthetic, the perfect dressing room is created with the care of its contents in mind. In order to ensure that no silk scarf could ever be snagged within this setup, the Birch Plywood panels were treated to a fine-sanded and velvety smooth finish. As a final flourish, a high-quality lacquer was applied for longevity, washability, and durability against abrasion from hard items such as belts or jewellery.

This home is a great example of longevity, because it embodies the idea in its fullest sense. Like all of our homes, it’s designed for aging in place, with tons of accessibility upgrades–including an elevator–so that the homeowner can live out all of his days in the comfort of his own home.

This custom kitchen renovation made use of what was once an eat-in area to maximize storage and cabinet space. The classic shaker-style cabinets in this kitchen design maximize longevity and keep the space looking bright and spacious.

Front Porch – Side View | Custom Aluminum & Metal Railing
This side view showcases the newly built front porch, designed to complement the home’s second-floor addition while adding both function and architectural character. The porch is fully wrapped with sleek black aluminum and metal railings, creating a modern, durable, and low-maintenance solution that enhances curb appeal.
The clean lines of the railing provide a subtle contrast against the home’s exterior finishes, framing the porch without visually overpowering the façade. Built with longevity in mind, the aluminum system offers weather resistance, safety, and code-compliant guarding, making it ideal for Toronto’s climate.
This front porch upgrade not only improves everyday usability but also ties the entire exterior renovation together, reinforcing Cedarstone Group Inc.’s approach to thoughtful detailing, craftsmanship, and cohesive design in full-home transformations and second storey additions.

We love transformations and this front entry door system is an excellent example!
The new entry door is the full oval Heirloom series glass in a textured, hand-stained finish. The door is still steel, but has textured grains running the same way as in a natural wood door.
The storm door is an aluminum, full view storm door. Like the entry door, it is textured and hand stained to match.
We finished the opening with capping and the matching decorative handle sets really give the doors an elegant look.
What I really like is how the rich Mahogany stands out against the light stone of the home and really ties in the red brick running along the bottom, not to mention the woodgrain texture of the door looks gorgeous with the home's natural stone!
The beauty of wood with the strength and longevity of steel!

This full gut remodel of an original 1960s home on the beautiful hillside of west-shore in Tahoe brought modern functionality and a peaceful transformation to a family mountain escape. Unbeatable views drove this design to expand a lakeside window wall, enlarge a kitchen for more communal living, and reclaim available crawlspace for extra bedrooms and bathrooms downstairs to house a growing family tree. We installed custom white oak cabinetry, honed quartz countertops, engineered hardwood flooring, new electrical and spray foam insulation to improve performance and extend longevity.
