Projects

	Exterior Makeover - 2011 Gold Award: Residential Exterior This was my fourth project for this particular client over the past 12 years. We renovated the majority of the home’s interior and it was time to complete the process. This project consisted of a renovation to the living room, foyer and a complete custom detailed exterior.

	Beach House - 2008 Platinum Award: Entire House over $1,000,000 This project was created for a young professional couple with school age children and an active life style. The owner who was our main contact worked in Manhattan and traveled abroad frequently. Site meetings were quite infrequent. Through a series of digital pictures, PDF documents and emails, we were able to communicate electronically with a surprisingly high degree of efficiency and understanding.

	Media Room for the Family - 2010 National Winner & 2009 Gold Award: Home Theater & Media Rooms under $150,000 This project involves a media room which we designed with high quality sound components and acoustics, a large size Hi-definition display capable of displaying all types of media content and easy to use controllability. The room was created in a warm den setting that didn't look like a theater and could double as a common space for family night when they all got together to play board games.

	Front Porch Living - 2006 Gold Award: Residential Exterior under $100,000 We constructed a new front porch, added detailing to the existing dog house dormers, installed new windows and an entry door and performed some minor interior modifications to the foyer and billiards room. To complete the transformation we installed a new masonry entry, walk and retaining wall planters.

	Master Suite - 2009 Gold Award: Residential Addition $100,000 - $250,000 This project was created due to the need for a Master Suite with first floor access. Our clients wanted a quality product with radiant heat in the bathroom, substantial moldings and elegant detailing throughout. The master bath includes marble inlay work and a totally custom cherry vanity which lays up into the curve of a barreled ceiling. Our work encompassed the master suite as well as the adjoining mudroom and dining room.

	Whole House - Back where they belong - 2010 Platinum Award: Entire House $250,000 - $500,000 This is a story that has a sad beginning but a very happy ending. Our client's home caught fire and sustained major fire damage. Thankfully, the family and pets made it out without injury but the house and personal effects didn't fare as well. The home had to undergo a complete gut, a partial rebuild and a total fire restoration process. Along the way, we reconfigured walls to create a better flow and significantly upgraded the finishes throughout.

	Family Room - 2008 Silver Award: Residential Addition $100,000 - $250,000 This was a "design-build" project for first time clients who wanted a family room large enough to hold their growing extended family for the holidays, as well as during the summer months when they entertain out on the deck or by the pool. They wanted the addition to have an open floor plan, lots of light and good access to the new deck.

	A Little for Everyone In this project the homeowner had the desire to build out his basement with playroom, office and gym space and also perform an exterior remodel. Once on site, the project grew to backyard and patio renovations as well as the addition of a custom wine cellar. The beauty of this project is in the details.

	Old World Charm - 2008 Gold Award: Residential Interior over $100,000 Our clients presented us with a home built in the early 1900s and asked us to renovate their master quarters. They wanted to try to keep the feel of the home's vintage and a hint of the elegance it once displayed. Working tightly to the clients specs we created the space you see. Large crowns, wainscot panels, built-in cabinetry, an Asian marble bath outfitted with a refurbished claw-foot tub and converted antique dresser for a vanity.”

	A New & Expanded Kitchen The client came to us seeking a Design Build process for their kitchen addition. Included in this project is the kitchen expansion and an exterior remodeling of the house.

	Master Suite - A Lot for a Little - 2008 Silver Award: Residential Addition under $100,000 This project was the result of a "design-build" effort. The homeowners are third time clients. Their needs were simple; to enlarge their master suite where by creating a sitting area in which they could warm up by a fire and read a book. Along the way it was decided to add a small deck to sit outside and provide access to a hot tub to soothe the bones.

	Whole House Simplicity - 2009 Gold Award: Entire House $250,000-$500,000 Simplicity! This is what our clients requested. They are collectors of art and fine collectables and our mission was to create a space which was unobtrusive and devoid of heavy detail so as not to detract from their offerings. Material choices were contemporary but still graceful in there showing. Sight lines and lighting was of huge importance as pieces were set for display throughout every conceivable spot in the house.

	Basement Build Out This project consisted of a "build-out" of an unfinished basement. Included into this space is a multi-media area, office / art studio, powder room and a clean and well organized laundry room. We also introduced additional closet space and an egress window which allows for safe evacuation as well as abundant light during the day time hours.

	The Vets Office - 2010 Platinum Award: Commercial Interior This project involved remodeling a waiting room and 12 patient exam rooms in a veterinary hospital. The owner expressed his desire for a warm setting with finishes that were durable enough for the traffic that an animal hospital receives. The real challenge however, was to renovate the only waiting room and all exam rooms in a hospital with a staff of over 150, complete it within a three week time span and performs it without disrupting the operation of the hospital.
