The living room looks directly at the kitchen and the built in bar. I painted the underside of the kitchen black to continue the black accent. Design is in the details and when clients trust the designers, then it all shines. These uber modern and sexy chairs bring the space together. They are made beautifully and keep the sightlines uninterrupted, keeping the space open and airy.

This is a great view of one side of this newly installed deck with custom railing outside of this new outdoor kitchen in Norcross, Ga. Lattice was installed to hide the underside of the deck and isn't used except for storage purposes.

Looking directly across the cooktop, the underside of the large stainless-steel hood forms a canopy over the working surface. Its metal baffles and three bright task lights echo the ordered arrangement of burner grates and controls below. A white kettle softens the dark cooking elements, while the broad white island surface extends toward two wire stools beyond. Glossy cabinets frame a narrow central passage, creating a clear sightline through the room and a quiet backdrop for the equipment. The nearly symmetrical composition combines minimalist cabinetry with the visual weight of a professional-style cooking station, placing the cook at the center of a bright, open, and carefully organized space.

The existing timber shelf above the existing masonry chimney opening was also kept. A LED light strip was added to its underside to provide additional focus to this original feature. A powerpack rangehood was installed into the existing masonry chimney cavity. A feature tile was used to walls and floor of this area to house the freestanding hob / oven.

Check out this beauty that we worked on in the Glenwild Golf Club in Park City, Utah! We collaborated with two of the best designers in the industry on this project, Michael Upwall and Leslie Schofield, and every detail was thought through and refined. We built three gorgeous interior staircases, a main entry stair, a back stair near the master suite, and a basement stair, all of which are pictured here. Using African Mahogany and gun blue’d steel, each curve was hand bent and hand carved. We even ensured that the ceiling edge on the lower level was stepped and scalloped to mirror the underside of the bowed stair treads. In addition to these beauties, we also worked on the exterior guardrails. All the exterior steel received a powder coat finish and the handrail was designed to be the mirror opposite of the interior, in that the wood and steel were switched. So great to work with great people. We love what we do!

This custom cedar deck project in Wilmette, IL, perfectly balances outdoor functionality with traditional craftsmanship. Built entirely with premium cedar, the design features a seamless transition from the main landing down to a spacious lower level, framed by classic matching cedar railings. To maximize the usability of the backyard space, we fully enclosed the underside of the structure with durable lattice skirting. This clever addition creates a clean, cohesive look that beautifully hides the framing while keeping local wildlife out. To ensure no space goes to waste, we integrated a custom-built access door, converting the under-deck area into a highly functional, secure outdoor storage solution for lawn equipment and seasonal gear.

The bathroom is a jack and jilll style bathroom, accessible from each bedroom on either side of it. For privacy in the bathroom, the curved wall was taken up to the underside of the exposed floor joist and glass block was installed to allow natural light to filter into the space.

An Ipe bridge (sustainably harvested wood) spans the infinity edge pool providing an overlook to the ravine over which the main houses bridges. Perforated rusted metal or corten steel panels clad the underside of the bridge. Poured concrete piers support the main bridge.

The existing timber shelf above the existing masonry chimney opening was also kept. A LED light strip was added to its underside to provide additional focus to this original feature. A powerpack rangehood was installed into the existing masonry chimney cavity. A feature tile was used to walls and floor of this area to house the freestanding hob / oven.
