From the front yard, you can see into living room, through house, over the pool to the water in the river that runs behind it. Pineapple House designers bring native Florida limestone from the exterior to interior, using it as an accent wall. Four open, metal living room chandeliers add balance & rhythm to the space without obstructing views. The enormous glass walls meet all codes (they are hurricane rated) and are topped with transoms that also meet strict, necessary Florida codes.

This project was a house being completely remodeled in the Woodlands, right outside of Houston. And we installed our Stainless steel Roundbar system both on the stairs and on top of the cabinet adjacent to the stairs. The specifications on this are ½ roundbar with 1 2/3 newel posts and handrail. 304 stainless steel. The round bar is spaced 4 inches apart for code compliance. Additionally we installed a continuous handrail on the left side which is also required by code. This project was completed in 1 day.

Includes two 18" leaves to extend to 90" and seat up to 8. Inspired by European 19th century antiques from England and Germany the Highlands collection was designed to create a relaxed yet traditional style that evokes warmth and feel of a country retreat. The main finish is a rich warm deep patina Mahogany while select pieces are available in Antique Black or Antique White finishes. All finishes are accented with Burnished Copper turned knobs.

The Willow Bend collection is a perfect example of furniture inspired by the farm-to-table movement. While Willow Bend has farmhouse overtones, it also intentionally appeals to urban and suburban consumers. While it gives a nostalgic glance at simpler and more tranquil times, it offers an eclectic blend of modern function, technology-ready furniture and is paired with contemporary accessories.

This contemporary kitchen is designed for accessibility and ease of use for everyone in the family, including the mother who uses an electric wheelchair. It won 4 National First Place awards and an Honorable Mention for Universal Design and Aging in Place. Photographer - Brian Vogel

The kitchen was large but dark inside. We built a significant light box on the roof to bring generous light to the center of the room but also to create a sense of place. The views from the room (to the left and behind the camera in this shot) are spectacular. Photo by Brad Knipstein

Lincoln Farmhouse LEED-H Platinum, Net-Positive Energy OVERVIEW. This LEED Platinum certified modern farmhouse ties into the cultural landscape of Lincoln, Massachusetts - a town known for its rich history, farming traditions, conservation efforts, and visionary architecture. The goal was to design and build a new single family home on 1.8 acres that respects the neighborhood’s agrarian roots, produces more energy than it consumes, and provides the family with flexible spaces to live-play-work-entertain. The resulting 2,800 SF home is proof that families do not need to compromise on style, space or comfort in a highly energy-efficient and healthy home. CONNECTION TO NATURE. The attached garage is ubiquitous in new construction in New England’s cold climate. This home’s barn-inspired garage is intentionally detached from the main dwelling. A covered walkway connects the two structures, creating an intentional connection with the outdoors between auto and home. FUNCTIONAL FLEXIBILITY. With a modest footprint, each space must serve a specific use, but also be flexible for atypical scenarios. The Mudroom serves everyday use for the couple and their children, but is also easy to tidy up to receive guests, eliminating the need for two entries found in most homes. A workspace is conveniently located off the mudroom; it looks out on to the back yard to supervise the children and can be closed off with a sliding door when not in use. The Away Room opens up to the Living Room for everyday use; it can be closed off with its oversized pocket door for secondary use as a guest bedroom with en suite bath. NET POSITIVE ENERGY. The all-electric home consumes 70% less energy than a code-built house, and with measured energy data produces 48% more energy annually than it consumes, making it a 'net positive' home. Thick walls and roofs lack thermal bridging, windows are high performance, triple-glazed, and a continuous air barrier yields minimal leakage (0.27ACH50) making the home among the tightest in the US. Systems include an air source heat pump, an energy recovery ventilator, and a 13.1kW photovoltaic system to offset consumption and support future electric cars. ACTUAL PERFORMANCE. -6.3 kBtu/sf/yr Energy Use Intensity (Actual monitored project data reported for the firm’s 2016 AIA 2030 Commitment. Average single family home is 52.0 kBtu/sf/yr.) o 10,900 kwh total consumption (8.5 kbtu/ft2 EUI) o 16,200 kwh total production o 5,300 kwh net surplus, equivalent to 15,000-25,000 electric car miles per year. 48% net positive. WATER EFFICIENCY. Plumbing fixtures and water closets consume a mere 60% of the federal standard, while high efficiency appliances such as the dishwasher and clothes washer also reduce consumption rates. FOOD PRODUCTION. After clearing all invasive species, apple, pear, peach and cherry trees were planted. Future plans include blueberry, raspberry and strawberry bushes, along with raised beds for vegetable gardening. The house also offers a below ground root cellar, built outside the home's thermal envelope, to gain the passive benefit of long term energy-free food storage. RESILIENCY. The home's ability to weather unforeseen challenges is predictable - it will fare well. The super-insulated envelope means during a winter storm with power outage, heat loss will be slow - taking days to drop to 60 degrees even with no heat source. During normal conditions, reduced energy consumption plus energy production means shelter from the burden of utility costs. Surplus production can power electric cars & appliances. The home exceeds snow & wind structural requirements, plus far surpasses standard construction for long term durability planning.
