Drewett WorksWINNER: Silver Award – One-of-a-Kind Custom or Spec 4,001 – 5,000 sq ft, Best in American Living Awards, 2019
Affectionately called The Magnolia, a reference to the architect's Southern upbringing, this project was a grass roots exploration of farmhouse architecture. Located in Phoenix, Arizona’s idyllic Arcadia neighborhood, the home gives a nod to the area’s citrus orchard history.
Echoing the past while embracing current millennial design expectations, this just-complete speculative family home hosts four bedrooms, an office, open living with a separate “dirty kitchen”, and the Stone Bar. Positioned in the Northwestern portion of the site, the Stone Bar provides entertainment for the interior and exterior spaces. With retracting sliding glass doors and windows above the bar, the space opens up to provide a multipurpose playspace for kids and adults alike.
Nearly as eyecatching as the Camelback Mountain view is the stunning use of exposed beams, stone, and mill scale steel in this grass roots exploration of farmhouse architecture. White painted siding, white interior walls, and warm wood floors communicate a harmonious embrace in this soothing, family-friendly abode.

“The Genteel Charm of Modern Farmhouse Architecture Inspired by Architect C.P. Drewett,” by Elise Glickman for Iconic Life, Nov 13, 2019
Plan ArchitectureA fresh and inventive response to the McMansion, this new 4,000sf speculative development home has been meticulously designed and executed to deliver a tasteful and functional floor plan which reflects modern living.
Brett King BuilderThe existing doorway was crumbling apart. Speculation surmised that originally it was a window and at some point was modified into a door. A reclaimed stone header and threshold were tediously adopted into the original stone framework. The rest of the adjoining stone on either side of the entryway was massaged into place to make the outcome look intentional. A custom wood door and accompanying screen door were hung in the renovated opening.

SRA Design + Build Architects Corp.This Craftsman style house went from 1950s split-level to contemporary design featuring a large family room with oak truss ceiling, outdoor decks and a walk-out basement. We used most of the existing foundation and first-floor perimeter walls and embraced the narrow, deep lot. This was a Design Build speculative house that started a trend of upgrading the entire street.
Signature Designs Kitchen | Bath | InteriorsMaster bathroom remodel where we kept the original footprint for the most part but we updated all the materials, added some elegant lighting and speculator tile. The wood tile flooring was cut to a smaller size to create smaller pattern. The vanity walls feature a glass v shaped tile surrounded by marble linear. The crystal chandelier over the tub and at the vanity wall add an elegance to this master bathroom.

SRA Design + Build Architects Corp.This charming 100-year-old landmark house in the historic section of Short Hills was fully renovated and restored in 2008. A seamless addition designed by SRA includes a two-car garage, family room, kitchen and master bedroom suite. Like much of SRA’s work in Short Hills, this was a speculative Design Build venture, and the house was sold after completion.

Tonic Design + Tonic ConstructionDesigned for the lifestyle and budget of a young married couple and growing family, this home offers a viable alternative to the generic speculative home. Occupying a small leftover developer site, just under four tenths of an acre at the end of a suburban cul-de-sac, the Lanning Residence site is anchored by a one hundred year old oak tree. The parcel, once undesirable to developers and their speculative plans, became the inspiration for the project form.
Acting as both designers and builders, the decision was made early to utilize a strategy typical to most suburban construction; maximizing square footage while minimizing the building perimeter. An analysis of the surrounding suburban fabric revealed that the adjoining property lines were heavily planted. Views and window placement were organized to take advantage of the adjacent landscape while maximizing natural light.
The house program is distributed within two main volumes that are connected by a translucent circulation volume. The spacious interior volumes, large windows, plywood shear walls, sheetrock, and simple details allowed for a light construction budget. Spray foam insulation and well designed mechanical systems allowed the family to reduce their monthly utility bills by over half, creating a far more energy efficient lifestyle.

Waterwonderland! Is it a water feature or is it an outdoor sculpture? We would speculate it is a bit of both. The fun thing about this water feature is it is interactive. The Blackstone porcelain tile is meant to be stepped on, you can wind your way beside and over the water and still stay dry!
