Mevrou, erected in 1922, was a Landmark Structure which over time had seen many additions and renovations. The design process began by peeling away the layers and uncovering the original footprint. The small front staircase located to the north and right off the main entry became an interesting challenge to work through as its location, while original to the structure, was not ideal. The original 1922 structure dictated the scale of the addition, telling the story from the outside and guiding the interior flow. Beginning from the west living room wall, the new design created the dining, kitchen, and family room areas that more naturally lead into the rest of the home. The composition resulted in Mevrou being composed of two volumes: a strong, single form of concrete plastered walls remaining from the original more formal structure, contrasted by the exposed brick form of the new addition. The contrast of original and new structure continues to tell Mevrou’s long story on the interiors as well, displaying beautiful exposed brick and plank boards. The new fireplace mantel was designed based on the original doors Mevrou once sported in 1922 paying homage to the details lost during its lifetime of renovations.

Some homes carry history in their walls. This Georgetown townhome, the first married residence of JFK and Jackie Kennedy, asked for a staircase worthy of that history. The answer: a three-story elliptical stair that rises through the home with quiet authority, its custom handrail molded to follow the curve exactly, without compromise. Engineering and craftsmanship had to work in lockstep here; the architecture left little room for approximation. The result doesn't announce itself. It simply belongs, as if it had always been there, waiting to be uncovered. 1976-2026 © Century Stair Company

To create a more open and functional kitchen, our design solution involved removing the walls around the oversized pantry and replacing it with a custom built-in breakfast nook. This allowed us to uncover and make use of an existing window while adding two more windows around the nook, dramatically increasing natural light and making the space feel brighter and more inviting. To preserve storage, we kept the full-height green cabinetry, ensuring the homeowners still had ample dedicated pantry space. For the laundry area, we reimagined the flow by building a dedicated entry from the garage—a new stairway and door that opened directly into the kitchen. This allowed us to give the laundry room its own enclosed space, eliminating the need to walk through it when coming and going, and contributing to a more streamlined and spacious kitchen layout overall.

This project involved the complete renovation of a historic stone house ruin in the South of France. During the restoration, long-buried original stone walls were carefully uncovered and preserved, bringing the home’s character and history back to life. Windows were enlarged and balconies were added to capture the sweeping views of the sea and allow natural light to flood the interiors. Inside, reclaimed wood was used to create custom furniture pieces, bathroom vanities, and a fireplace mantel, adding warmth and authenticity to the space. Limestone tile floors run throughout the home, complementing a palette of soft neutral tones. Textural elements such as natural stone, aged wood, and leather furnishings create a layered, relaxed elegance that reflects the coastal Mediterranean setting.

Our clients were inspired by the idea of a master bedroom with beautiful, functional closet space, and a larger shower – more so than there loathed 36″ x 36″ corner acrylic unit. After a number of visits, a plan was devised to build 3 closet areas, and a large shower with a floating quartz bench. The bedroom would see a dividing wall, but not to the ceiling so light could come through. The biggest of the three closets would be closest to the window, with a room entirely devoted to that space. The floor in the bathroom would feature a heated flooring system, and the vanity would have backlight lighting on the mirror. The demolition uncovered some surprises, which restricted certain locations of plumbing, so the shower was enlarged and one of the closets was scrapped. In the end, it worked out fantastic. More emphasis was placed on the open concept closet, which thrilled our clients. They were also not disappointed with their larger shower. Photo Aristea Photography

This stunning design mixes rustic finishes with contemporary architecture with a large shed roof, parapet wall above the garage and modern awnings. Just inside the covered entry is a 12'-6" ceiling with a transom window to illuminate the foyer. The spacious living areas are central to the bedrooms for a nice flow to the floorplan. The secondary bedrooms are located opposite of the master suite for privacy, and have walk-in closets in each room. There is a large covered and uncovered patio on the rear of the house and 3-car garage for lots of storage.
