The customer wanted to open up their kitchen into the dining room but didn't want to disturb the original wood floors. We cut through the wall to create the feel of one large room but maintain two separate areas. The results are amazing.

Custom masonry shelving was integrated directly into the outdoor kitchen to provide functional, weather-resistant storage without adding visual clutter. These built-in shelves were designed to keep essentials within reach while maintaining clean lines and uninterrupted circulation along the patio.

Adjacent to the custom under-stair toy storage area, mobile activity carts were organized to create a dedicated reading and activity zone. Books, crafts, educational materials, and creative play supplies were grouped for easy access, encouraging independent use while maintaining a streamlined system for the family.

Luxury custom reef aquarium integrated directly into the shower and bathroom design of this contemporary oceanfront residence. The aquarium was designed to function as both a living reef ecosystem and an architectural focal point within the bathroom environment while maintaining clean integration with the surrounding millwork, lighting, and structural design of the space. Projects like this require detailed coordination between aquarium design, waterproofing systems, plumbing integration, lighting, ventilation, cabinetry, and long-term maintenance accessibility long before installation begins. The system includes remote life support and filtration equipment located separately from the display aquarium to reduce equipment visibility and maintain a clean modern presentation within the bathroom space.

Georgia Coast Design & Construction - Southern Living Custom Builder Showcase Home at St. Simons Island, GA Built on a one-acre, lakefront lot on the north end of St. Simons Island, the Southern Living Custom Builder Showcase Home is characterized as Old World European featuring exterior finishes of Mosstown brick and Old World stucco, Weathered Wood colored designer shingles, cypress beam accents and a handcrafted Mahogany door.

We left the water pipes exposed to maintain the historic look of the house, accenting them with white paint against the blue. We patterned the bracket shape for the open shelves from the original design of those on the built-in, which we hung over the breakfast bar.

The family room was conceived as a double-height architectural volume anchored by a monolithic stone fireplace and integrated millwork niches. Ceiling pitch, vertical planes, and material transitions were addressed during the design selection phase to ensure the scale of the architecture remained balanced once furnished. Soft, low-profile seating was selected to maintain clear sightlines across the room while allowing the fireplace surround and wood-lined alcoves to remain the primary focal elements. The furniture plan creates a structured conversational arrangement without interrupting circulation or visual flow. Textural layering — woven upholstery, stone, wood paneling, and subtle metal accents — reinforces warmth within the height and openness of the space. The result is a family room that reads as composed architecture first, furnishing second: grounded, scaled, and designed to support both gathering and daily use without visual noise.

We gave this Northern Virginia master bathroom a major facelift that turned it from drab and dated to chic retreat. The modern updates include a floating double vanity, deep soaking tub and custom sliding glass shower enclosure. The beautiful porcelain tile mimics wooden white marble, but is easier to maintain than its natural stone counterpart. Jenn Verrier Photography
