UserThe XXTwo Plan merges ultimate functionality with a clean Scandinavian-inspired modern farmhouse minimalism. From the curb, the design presents with an impressive stature marked by a tall 2-story gable massing, flanked by a flat-roofed wing and entryway sheltered by a quaint second-story deck above. This rendition is skinned with a dark concrete brick, accented by a richly-stained tongue and groove cedar wood facade.
Designed specifically for NE16, my OKC Urban Renewal-awarded redevelopment project in inner Oklahoma City, this plan is compatible with narrow lots while still packing in nearly 1900 square feet of pure, functional living space. It includes a standard 1-car garage with modern, satin-glass window garage door, but when building from scratch, can also be re-configured as a pull-through breezeway into a backyard parking scenario, where a detached garage is also possible.
Guests are greeted with an impressive two-story vaulted, naturally-lit staircase immediately adjacent to the front door. The great room, complete with a touch of industrial-modern with its exposed HVAC ductwork, is vast with a roomy kitchen on one end and living room at the other. Just beyond the living room is a 3-panel door system to the back patio and yard.
Kitchen-wise, modern enthusiasts who love to cook will enjoy the large kitchen wall that includes an impressive range and vent hood with a horizontal slider window built right into the backsplash over the cooktop. The island also includes one of my signature built-in tables that comfortably seats six, and is one less piece of furniture to buy. A powder bathroom also resides downstairs, saving you that quick climb up the stairs just for a quick bathroom stop.
When it's time to retire for the evening, the upstairs offers several living options. Just atop the staircase is a double-door system that provides not only natural light, but access to the quaint rooftop deck overlooking the front yard. The hall leads to a full bathroom, linen closet, and spacious back bedroom with walk-in closet. Down the other end of the hall leads to the master suite, utility room, and 3rd bedroom, also with its own master closet.
The master suite, the largest of the three bedrooms, has its own full bathroom with dual sinks, shower, toilet room, and large walk-in closet with that direct, secondary connectivity to the utility room that many of my designs are known for.
If a truly-modern curb appeal that doesn't skimp on functional space is what you're after, give the XXTwo a good look. | jC
Houseworks llcThis small weekend cabin designed by the owner is incredibly space-efficient. Hosting 2 bedrooms and 2 baths by sharing a shower and having an office space that doubles as a second bedroom by utilizing a Murphy bed, the modest 7oo SF footprint can comfortably accommodate guests. The outdoor spaces expand the living area with a 400 SF porch and a 200 SF deck that overlooks the river below. Materials were carefully selected to provide sustainable beauty and durability. The siding and decking are Kebony, interior floors are polished concrete (with hydronic heat), the fireplace surround is board-formed concrete (no finish applied), and the built-ins and half of the interior doors are cedar. The other interior doors are painted poplar with a waxed-steel band. A reclaimed pine countertop finishes off the natural steel framework made by a local fabricator. Houseworks provided the doors, built-in cabinetry, and poured-in-place concrete for the fireplace and remote firepit.
Twisted Rock Terrascape & Design, Inc.Our client had a very steep rear yard that was virtually unusable, albeit quite large. We were hired to design and build a functional yard utilizing large outcropping boulders to create tiers for family get togethers, planters, and treed areas. The project rounded off with side yard privacy in the form of Columnar Spruce, as well as concrete edging and aggregate bedding for ease of maintenance. What a great project!!

MIllworks is an 8 home co-housing sustainable community in Bellingham, WA. Each home within Millworks was custom designed and crafted to meet the needs and desires of the homeowners with a focus on sustainability, energy efficiency, utilizing passive solar gain, and minimizing impact.
Twisted Rock Terrascape & Design, Inc.Our client contacted us wanting to create a relatively maintenance free yard that focuses on relaxing family time spent in the sun as opposed to yard work. We designed and built the project utilizing synthetic grass, aggregate bedding and wonderful paving stone patio with a large cedar privacy pergola as the main focal point. Lighting & concrete edging along with step stones finished off this stunning project!!
Native Edge LandscapeAnother fun Crestview project! This young couple wanted a back yard that reflected their bohemian-eclectic style and could add additional privacy from the ever climbing construction around them. A place for “hanging out and drinking coffee or beer in the backyard.” But what was most exciting, was the air stream they had just purchased and were in the process of restoring. With the end goal of using it as a guest home for family and friends, we were challenged with creating a space that was cohesive and connected this new living space with the rest of the yard.
In the front we had another quark to fix. The sidewalk from their front door to the street suddenly stopped 5 feet from the curb, making a less than inviting entry for guests. So, creating a new usable entryway with additional curb appeal was a top priority.
We managed the entertainment space by using modern poured concrete pad’s as a focal. A poured concrete wall serves as a bench as well as creates a visual anchor for the patio area. To soften the hard materials, small plantings of succulents and ground cover were planted in the spaces between the pads. For a backdrop, a custom Cedar Plank wall and trellis combined to soften the vertical space and add plenty of privacy. The trellis is anchored by a Coral Vine to add interest. Cafe style lighting was strung across the area create a sense of intimacy.
We also completed the fence transition, and eliminated the grass areas that were not being utilized to reduce the amount of water waste in the landscape, and replaced these areas with beneficial plantings for the wildlife.
Overall, this landscape was completed with a cohesive Austin-friendly design in mind for these busy young professionals!

Thrive Outdoor, Inc.Hardscaping is the implementation of garden architecture combining plants, walls, walkways, and even water. This landscaping technique utilizes non-plant based elements as an integral part of the overall design and construction of your landscape, providing more than ornamental grasses, trees, shrubs and flowers to your outdoor space.
Retaining Walls That Tame the Landscape and Protect Your Investment
More than functional, our retaining walls are works of art. Made of modular concrete or natural stone, they are both classic and contemporary in style. We’ll work hard to complement the style of your home’s existing structures and outdoor surfaces while ensuring a design that is integral to preventing erosion, providing easy transitions to steep grades and protecting your investment in plantings.
Sustainable and Beautiful Patios, Entryways and Driveways
Turf Tamer, Inc. is known for unique, custom stonework and specialty brick paving that varies from subtle to dramatic. We use a variety of materials, including concrete permeable pavers, bricks, concrete, and flagstone, some of which carry up to a lifetime warranty. Our designers and crew can create an incredible, low-maintenance outdoor surface that increases the beauty, function and value of your home.
Sustainable Decks for Value, Beauty and Enjoyment
If it’s a deck you want, we’ll design it to be uniquely yours. And, we’ll build it from cedar, redwood or even longer lasting composition materials. Whatever it takes, we’ll make those transitions from inside to outside living beautiful, low-maintenance and perfect for your next dinner party or family get together.
