On a through-block lot stretching between two streets, this house responds with two faces- a restored Victorian facade addresses the more formal frontage, and a modern one opens onto the other. The old facade is an elegant mask fronting three original rooms of handsome proportion. The modern face is an open gable framing two levels of family rooms with operable glass walls and a syncopated screen of white recyclable plastic. Inside, old and new blend together in an open suite of rooms. Upstairs, the existing attic was mined for unused space to create quirky gabled bedrooms, each with its own character.

The site of this single story residence is at the base of the Teton Mountain range with views of canyons and peaks. To respond to this topographical edge condition, the form of the primary living space rises to capture this view. The entry sequence begins by arrival into a south facing “courtyard” defined by the house and an outbuilding. A linear porch accessed from the garage or the exterior leads to the entry. This ‘tail’ of the scheme wraps around itself, culminating at the expansive glazed wall and terrace beyond. Project Year: 2008

Request Free QuoteThe brick landing shown is part of the home’s original walk, reimagined as an open welcome before the final approach to the front door. It becomes a natural extension of the threshold, suggesting the entrance appears more generous than it is. Repeating topiary-type plantings with seasonal flowers spilling from containers add chapters to the story. The largest challenge was to respond with a wonderful front walk and additional parking, yet keeping the hardscape down to a 30% maximum coverage of the front yard dictated by the zoning code on this tight property.

This guest room is a nice balance between masculine and feminine, from the lavender walls to the gray accents. And who doesn't like a room with a sense of humor? My "stand-in" gray puppy and doggie photo makes it approachable and fun! Details are the jewelry in a space so give it attention. Note the custom fabricated burgundy silk shade.

The house is sited in the tree line at the edge of a rocky outcrop, and responds to sweeping eastern views of the valley below. The family cooks, eats, and hangs out together in a space with amazing eastern sunlight and a strong connection to the trees outside and the Piedmont landscape in the distance. A "personal touch" was high on the clients' wish-list—interiors of warm wood tones are accompanied by owner-crafted items, stained glass, cabinetry, railings and works of art. This humble sensibility is carried through on the exterior with simple board and batten siding, whitewash, and a rambling series of forms inspired by central Virginia agricultural architecture.

Liquid Gold: Safari-Inspired Epoxy Bathroom Floor Bold design meets golden flow. For this unique bathroom makeover in Rancho Mirage, CA, the client had one request—make the floor match the safari theme. We responded with a rich, flowing liquid gold epoxy pour that turned the floor into a seamless piece of art. After carefully leveling the surface, we created a custom design that shimmers with warmth and wild energy. The result? A bathroom that feels like a luxury retreat—untamed, elegant, and unforgettable.

Client Testimonial from project: John just completed my master bathroom gut as well as refinishing my hardwood floors and powder bath remodel. I can't say enough about John and his team. He is quick to respond, trustworthy, organized, timely, and does beautiful work. I'm an interior designer, so I know exactly how I want the finished project to look and John delivered exactly what I wanted down to the tiniest detail. My master bath was a complicated project with lots of custom details and he came up with creative ways to implement such a design. It was nice to leave on several week long vacations and not only trust that my house and belongings were safe and watched after, but also to be able to see the progress that he documented daily with photos and notes on BuilderTrend - a website that he uses to communicate with clients. I will most certainly use Ammirato Construction in the future, and well as recommend them to clients and friends. Virtual Imagery 360 Photography

Located overlooking the ski resorts of Big Sky, Montana, this MossCreek custom designed mountain home responded to a challenging site, and the desire to showcase a stunning timber frame element.

This is truly a magnificent, and very livable home for family and friends. Photos: R. Wade

The clients got a spacious, modern kitchen that they could entertain in, or simply cook for a large crew of first responders. They also kept what they wanted by refinishing and reworking what they already had for windows and floors. They were also able to live onsite during the renovation due to the low-VOC and water-based finishes, keeping their health while updating and increasing the health of their home.

Our clients for this home in the Los Altos Hills — an active, athletic family of five — wanted a home that would reflect their zest for life and accommodate their highly social lifestyle. We responded by creating an inviting interior with a Hamptons-style vibe that combines elegant sophistication and a relaxed, playful approach in equal measure. A background of bright white woodwork and shiplap allows nautical blues, woven textures and touches of leather to pop, and rustic brick in the mudroom and pantry bring the outdoors in. In the gameroom, Ralph Lauren menswear wallpaper and seating backed in plaid are cozy and inviting, and a powder room cloaked in riveted charcoal grasscloth from Phillip Jeffries is a favorite.

Nestled in the heart of Dallas, our clients enjoy a 4-acre estate where they have developed the property for a "park" and "garden" like feel with lots of privacy and sound barrier from the neighbors and busy street along the front. They travel a lot for work and want to be able to come home and enjoy their own backyard oasis that is properly maintained and cared for. They also have 4 grandchildren who live on part of the property and roam around everywhere, so having lots of manicured lawn space to drive their toys around on, explore, etc. is important too. We service the property one day per week, since they retain a full-time porter. However, he is stretched thin as doesn't tend to much of the landscaping as needed as he's typically working on other side projects for the client. In order to complete our maintenance work within 5 hours on our service day, we work diligently with the client and the client’ assistant to constantly communicate issues we see and/or need to have resolved. Thankfully our client is very quick to respond and allows us an abundance of freedom to make necessary improvements when deemed necessary. Additionally, last minute work functions and/or parties are often hosted at their house. We often times have to respond quickly with an extra service visit, service date change, seasonal color change, bed mulching, etc. to help get it ready for their company. We value the trust and communication we have with this client and look forward to working with them for years to come!
