The 20K House is an ongoing research project that seeks to address the pressing need for decent and affordable housing in Hale County, Alabama.
Nearly 30% of individuals here live in poverty. The lack of conventional credit for people with this level of income, and insufficient knowledge about alternative sources of funding, mean that for many people trailers offer the only chance for home ownership. Unlike a house, which is an asset for its owner, trailers deteriorate very quickly and depreciate in value over time.
The 20K House project intends to produce a model home that could be reproduced on a large scale, and thereby become a viable alternative to the trailer in this area. The challenge is to build a house for $20,000, $10-12 of which will go towards materials, and the remainder on contracted labor.
The project began in 2005, and there have been 9 iterations of the house so far. The pictured model, "Mac's House", is the second model considered to be a viable model, based on its cost and constructability. The team (one Swede, one Brit, and a Baltimorean) focused on potential expandability within the model - creating a core house that can be extended over time to meet the needs of the occupants.

This charming 1930s cottage was in a state of disrepair, prior to the current ownership. I approached the current owner with the idea of opening up the interior, and creating a new exterior deck wrapping the northwest corner, connecting the main entry with the living room. The result was the transformation of a neglected house, into a beautiful renovated home.

This is a half-acre garden near the center of Towson, so it’s on the edge between urban and suburban. My dad, Wolfgang Oehme, designed the garden initially. After a change in ownership, I was asked to redesign much of the garden since it needed some help since it had been neglected. I designed and installed much of the planting that you see in the photos. I also redesigned the planting for the fish pond, butterfly garden in the rear, pollinator garden in the front, and I install annuals that fill the 9 pots at the front steps and rear deck and patio. I also have designed many fruiting trees and shrubs throughout. I continue to oversee the maintenance of this garden.

This was by far one of the most unique properties we’ve sold and we enjoyed coming up with the creative ideas to get this home marketed. We were able to find a Buyer right away to take over the ownership of this truly one-of-a-kind Portland home.
One-of-a-kind, urban loft style home in Brooklyn! This newer construction home is uber energy efficient and features a lot of “green” elements: solar panels, cinder block construction with Styrofoam insulation, radiant floor heat, tank-less water heater and metal roof. Polished concrete floors throughout the main level, bamboo floors in loft area, main floor room could be den space/office space. Enjoy views of the City and S. Waterfront. Conveniently located just minutes from downtown.

An innovative Modern-style home at an affordable price – yet, responds to our principles of climate-specific design, superior indoor air-quality and “total cost of ownership” durability. The appeal of our solutions from a “creature comfort” point of view is that they embody an understated simplicity, yet contain a visually interesting design that can be adapted to multiple home-buyer needs.

The ChallengeFor this master suite, the client wanted to trade a dated, heavy aesthetic for a space that felt like a "breath of fresh air." The goal was to create a private sanctuary that was bright and modern, yet retained the organic warmth of a lived-in home. They needed a layout that could accommodate both a spacious walk-in shower and a dedicated soaking tub without feeling crowded.The Zion Solution
We leaned into an Organic Modern palette, using custom White Oak vanities as the anchor for the room. We guided the client through the selection of a soft, aqua-toned tile set in a herringbone pattern for the shower—a design-forward choice that provides a subtle, rhythmic texture. To balance these softer elements, we introduced high-contrast Matte Black fixtures, providing a crisp, architectural edge. As your partner, we took absolute ownership of the "inch-by-inch" planning required to ensure the freestanding tub and glass shower functioned as a unified retreat.The Result
The transformation is a master-grade sanctuary that delivers daily inspiration and a sense of calm. By focusing on elite craftsmanship—from the precision of the herringbone tile alignment to the seamless quartz transitions—we created a home that inspires pride. It’s a space where the "Savvy Host" can truly recharge.

These homeowners loved to host, but their original layout was completely failing them functionally. Through our guided process, we transformed the space into a transitional masterpiece, layering crisp stacked cabinets with a character-stained oak island and a hidden forest green pantry. We backed the entire build with our Ownership Promise, absorbing the technical and logistical risks so they could navigate the renovation with absolute peace of mind. The outcome is a master-grade entertainment hub that delivers daily inspiration and a profound sense of pride the moment guests walk through the door.

A couple took ownership of their new residence on a top floor of a quiet street in central Lisbon. Our studio’s brief was to transform the duplex into a hideaway to detach from daily life and spend quality time with visiting relatives.
The design manifests family-focused features: upon entry, there is plentiful storage for shoes and coats; in the main living room, a custom island crafted in solid surface extends the compact kitchen into the social area, seamlessly bridging cooking and convivial gatherings. A buffet supports more elaborate meals. Sculptural pendants and niches that accentuate horizontal continuity favor interaction between the dining and flexible lounge areas.
Reimagined with durable materials, the bathrooms embrace efficiency and elegance. Cabinetry is integrated around the planes of countertops and insets carried across the room. Dark wood and textured accents punctuate the white surfaces, grounding the spaces in tactile warmth. The bedrooms, designed for adaptability, offer separable sleeping arrangements, peaceful workspaces, and versatile wardrobe solutions.
The light-toned furniture and organic elements are tailored to the interior, softening the contrasting architectural palette and rectilinear forms. Soothing accent lighting is interwoven throughout, offering an adaptable, serene atmosphere.
