This project's objective was to design and build a carport that could be used as a dining patio with minimal integrated planting, stairs, a mid-level lawn, and access to the storage shed.
This carport is exceptionally unique. It has a paved surface with planting towards the edges and open wood slated roof supported by a solid steel frame and a roll-up garage door to seal the yard from the adjacent laneway. The existing tool shed was shifted and rotated to open towards the carport while using the rear as a screen for late summer evening movies.
Creating space that can be utilized for dual purposes and maintaining open views from the house was achieved by tiering the yard to balance the number of stairs between, removing unnecessary railings and using low vegetation as buffers to soften the edges.
The carport doubled as a pergola for dining and entertaining. It was detailed with hanging string lights, a detailed paving pattern, staining the wood to expose the natural grains while contrasting against the steel posts and beams' black finish.
For this young family, it was the perfect transition that allowed flexibility and practical seasonal use.

Project Objective
The goal of this project was to deliver a highly realistic 3D visualization of a bedroom overlooking the forest, where contemporary comfort is seamlessly combined with natural serenity. The intention was to create not only a functional interior but also an atmosphere that reflects the calm and restorative qualities of the surrounding landscape.
Approach & Process
- Spatial Planning: The layout was developed with a strong focus on ergonomics and user experience, ensuring optimal proportions and flow.
- Materials & Lighting: Natural textures, such as wood and soft textiles, were paired with a warm, diffused lighting scheme to evoke a peaceful and immersive ambiance.
- Camera Work: Each camera angle was strategically chosen to emphasize the interplay between interior details and the expansive forest views, showcasing both design precision and emotional impact.
Outcome
The final visualization demonstrates a refined balance between aesthetics and practicality. Attention to detail — from fabric textures to the way light shifts across surfaces — allowed for the creation of an atmosphere that is not only visually convincing but also emotionally resonant. This project reflects my ability to translate design concepts into immersive, photorealistic visual experiences.

The homeowner’s existing master bath had a single sink where the current vanity/make-up area is and a closet where the current sinks are. It wasn’t much of a master bath.
Design Objectives:
-Two sinks and more counter space
-Separate vanity/make-up area with seating and task lighting
-A pop of color to add character and offset black and white elements
-Fun floor tile that makes a statement
-Define the space as a true master bath
Design challenges included:
-Finding a location for two sinks
-Finding a location for a vanity/make-up area
-Opening up and brightening a small, narrow space
THE RENEWED SPACE
Removing a closet and reorganizing the sink and counter layout in such small space dramatically changed the feel of this bathroom. We also removed a small wall that was at the end of the old closet. With the toilet/shower area opened up, more natural light enters and bounces around the room. The white quartz counters, a lighted mirror and updated lighting above the new sinks contribute greatly to the new open feel. A new door in a slightly shifted doorway is another new feature that brings privacy and a true master bath feel to the suite. Bold black and white elements and a pop color add the kind of statement feel that can be found throughout the rest of the house.

Located in a historic building once used as a warehouse. The 12,000 square foot residential conversion is designed to support the historical with the modern. The living areas and roof fabrication were intended to allow for a seamless shift between indoor and outdoor. The exterior view opens for a grand scene over the Mississippi River and the Memphis skyline. The primary objective of the plan was to unite the different spaces in a meaningful way; from the custom designed lower level wine room, to the entry foyer, to the two-story library and mezzanine. These elements are orchestrated around a bright white central atrium and staircase, an ideal backdrop to the client’s evolving art collection.
From the arrival side off of Wagner Place, the entry is through a new steel and glass door from a parking court. At that level, we incorporated into the parking court a garage, new steel planters with cast iron plant which could live in the low light conditions. The ceiling treatment is integrated from the garage and pulls you into the foyer of the residence. It is out of reclaimed oak that mimics original lath that would've been behind the plaster.

The 5,000 square foot private residence is located in the community of Horseshoe Bay, above the shores of Lake LBJ, and responds to the Texas Hill Country vernacular prescribed by the community: shallow metal roofs, regional materials, sensitive scale massing and water-wise landscaping. The house opens to the scenic north and north-west views and fractures and shifts in order to keep significant oak, mesquite, elm, cedar and persimmon trees, in the process creating lush private patios and limestone terraces.
The Owners desired an accessible residence built for flexibility as they age. This led to a single level home, and the challenge to nestle the step-less house into the sloping landscape.
Full height glazing opens the house to the very beautiful arid landscape, while porches and overhangs protect interior spaces from the harsh Texas sun. Expansive walls of industrial insulated glazing panels allow soft modulated light to penetrate the interior while providing visual privacy. An integral lap pool with adjacent low fenestration reflects dappled light deep into the house.
Chaste stained concrete floors and blackened steel focal elements contrast with islands of mesquite flooring, cherry casework and fir ceilings. Selective areas of exposed limestone walls, some incorporating salvaged timber lintels, and cor-ten steel components further the contrast within the uncomplicated framework.
The Owner’s object and art collection is incorporated into the residence’s sequence of connecting galleries creating a choreography of passage that alternates between the lucid expression of simple ranch house architecture and the rich accumulation of their heritage.
