We’re so excited to present our first full-fledged outdoor design! We worked closely with our clients to transform their existing exterior space from an informal gravel patio space into a series of gathering areas that are a better match to their incredible site and views.

We’ve taken a bit of a hiatus on our Illustrating Our Process series. One might say it’s because we’ve been so busy with all of our projects under construction that we haven’t had time to write about them! Needless to say, we’re excited to jump back in! If you’ve joined us recently or want to

We are thrilled to share that after a long winter, construction is back underway at Rebus! We had to pause construction until warmer weather headed our way in order to pour the concrete slab for the floor. As you likely know, slab pours are some of our favorite days – and this one was no

This doesn’t mean that we’ve stopped working with other contractors. We truly enjoy working with all

We’ve recently taken on a number of new projects – and one of them is already starting to tackle permitting! We thought it was about time to give one of our favorite updates and share our new projects on the boards! This batch includes a number of exciting renovations. We’re working on transforming a round

After the winter weather last week, we’ve been dreaming of modern homes in winter settings. We often get questions from clients about whether being upstate during the winter is really worth it. They also often have questions about whether our homes are good for four seasons – especially with so much glass! We’re thrilled to

We’re kicking off the new year by checking in on BC Retreat! Last time we did an update on this project, windows install had started and the house wrap had gone up. Since then, most of the windows have been fully installed and siding install is progressing well. In addition to the main house, we’ve
