Our clients were relocating from the upper peninsula to the lower peninsula and wanted to design a retirement home on their Lake Michigan property. The topography of their lot allowed for a walk out basement which is practically unheard of with how close they are to the water. Their view is fantastic, and the goal was of course to take advantage of the view from all three levels. The positioning of the windows on the main and upper levels is such that you feel as if you are on a boat, water as far as the eye can see. They were striving for a Hamptons / Coastal, casual, architectural style. The finished product is just over 6,200 square feet and includes 2 master suites, 2 guest bedrooms, 5 bathrooms, sunroom, home bar, home gym, dedicated seasonal gear / equipment storage, table tennis game room, sauna, and bonus room above the attached garage. All the exterior finishes are low maintenance, vinyl, and composite materials to withstand the blowing sands from the Lake Michigan shoreline.

Beautiful and extremely practical. This unique sofa solves your storage space problems. The Robin has been designed with much thought, both in design and function. The contemporary styling that includes simple track arms, beautiful contrasting stitching, and comfy gently tufted back cushions make this beauty a no-brainer. Hidden under its stylish facade, are two (2) generous storage compartments ready to conceal anything and everything from throw blankets, additional pillows, entertaining supplies, board games, devices, toys, and much more! How easy is it to access the storage compartments you ask? Easy. Pull and lift the fabric handles in front of the sofa to raise the seat cushion that is reinforced by a safe heavy duty spring and mechanism system for ease of access. The innovative design, simple to clean fabric, and insanely practical-function of this storage bed makes this new addition to your home the perfect choice for your clutter and storage dilemma.

Inspiration for an eclectic living room remodel in Austin with beige walls, a standard fireplace and a stone fireplace

This growing family wanted a welcoming retreat for visiting grandparents, so Better Builders transformed their basement into a bright, functional living space. The remodel added a private bedroom, full bathroom, and laundry closet, while the walkout design provided guests with convenient, separate access. Thoughtful details like a built-in desk under the stairs, custom shelving for games and books, and an updated fireplace make the space both practical and inviting. With careful attention to natural light, the basement feels open and airy—perfect for family living and hosting guests.

Guest House Kitchen – Functional Design with Flawless Execution This kitchen is part of the guest house, which also serves as a game room and integrated living space. We installed the entire floor and backsplash with the same precision and care applied throughout the main home. The open layout connects the kitchen seamlessly to the living and sleeping areas, so every line and transition had to be clean and perfectly aligned. The result is a stylish, practical space that offers both comfort and elegance — ready to welcome guests with the same high-end finish found throughout the estate.
