Our client’s goal was to create a small, high-performance, healthy home for herself and her teenage son while providing a place for her father to age in place. An attached private accessory dwelling provides a space for him as well as flexibility in the future. The new home was designed to minimize its footprint on site, made smaller than the original 1930’s house. Embracing adaptability and efficiency, the residence includes two dwellings: a one-bedroom 795 square-foot accessory dwelling at the lower grade and a two-story 1330 square-foot primary dwelling located above. Involved in all aspects of project execution, our client oversaw the process by living in a used trailer parked in the backyard throughout the project’s construction. Family-Share focused on maximizing the footprint’s performance, access to natural light and the health of the occupants. Sustainable features include high-performance glazing, solar preheat for domestic and hot water in-floor heating and reclaimed fir car decking rainscreen siding.

Located in the Cedar Mill area of Portland, this modern Mansard home was originally built in 1977. This project is a wonderful example of the amazing collaboration between Donna Dufresne Design and our clients. When we became involved the house had been taken down to the studs, with only a loose cabinetry plan and wallpaper selection from the client. With Donna's support through-out the remodeling process, she gave new life to this polished yet warm Pacific Northwest single-family home. (Photos by Maria Orlova)

During the planning phase we undertook a fairly major Value Engineering of the design to ensure that the project would be completed within the clients budget. The client identified a ‘Fords Garage’ style that they wanted to incorporate. They wanted an open, industrial feel, however, we wanted to ensure that the property felt more like a welcoming, home environment; not a commercial space. A Fords Garage typically has exposed beams, ductwork, lighting, conduits, etc. But this extent of an Industrial style is not ‘homely’. So we incorporated tongue and groove ceilings with beams, concrete colored tiled floors, and industrial style lighting fixtures. During construction the client designed the courtyard, which involved a large permit revision and we went through the full planning process to add that scope of work. The finished project is a gorgeous blend of industrial and contemporary home style.

The customers purchased a beautiful home on the lake to down-size and enjoy the lake living. They started to "beautify" their new home tackling small projects and that turned into a massive remodeling process that involved multiple rooms, such as the living room and the kitchen. Here you can see the entertainment center. The piece is visible from kitchen, so the cabinets had to match the kitchen cabinetry. To give this design more interest we added cabinets with different depth, doors routed for glass and wire mesh--- Cabinets by Bellmont 1900 series, door style Whistler in white paint

Photo Credit: Willett Photography http://www.willettphoto.com The home is located in Atlanta, GA and was a complete ground up project. We worked with the very talented architect Rodolfo Castro. We worked closely with him and the clients to achieve the right interior layout as well as the furniture plan. As far as the interior design, we helped with the selections of the various finishes (flooring, bathroom tiles, paint colors for both interior and exterior, hardware, furniture and light fixtures). Working with great vendors such as Francois & Co. for the kitchen hood and the fireplace, Specialty Tile, Circa Lighting, Century Furniture, and many other wonderful local vendors. This helped us achieve the perfect atmosphere and architectural detail in the space. The clients were very involved in the selection process and so it helped that they had great taste! It was a great project from concept to the finished design.

Key improvements of this 1938 kitchen remodel involved removing the chimney and the wall that separated the dining room from the kitchen. Appliances were rearranged and new Waypoint cabinets, Cambria countertops, and linear tile backsplash were installed to transform the space. A cute eat-in area with room for two stools was also incorporated. Trim at the existing dining room built ins was modified and the hardwood floors in the dining room and living room were refinished. According to our final survey with this client, our sales and design process was extremely transparent and smooth. During construction they were happy about the project manager’s communication, quality of woodwork, and cleanliness of the jobsite. This remodel was definitely a success story for Castle and the owners of this beautiful Tudor home in NE Minneapolis.
