The past few months, we’ve been going strong on construction updates. We have a number of projects under construction and it’s been fun to be able to share a little bit of progress from each of them each month. For July, we’re focusing on South Mountain House. The last time we did a post, concrete

Ever since Studio MM started growing and adding people to our team, we’ve had a firm belief in taking time twice a year to go on a team offsite. Offsites are a great way to get to know each other as colleagues and as individuals. They also help us discover and discuss how we approach

The first signs of spring have brought a breath of fresh energy into the office – as well as a wave of new projects that we are all very excited about. From smaller renovation projects to new homes upstate, each of these projects is something special. Even as we are all looking towards a light

A number of our current projects are focusing their attention on one of the best parts of building a house in upstate New York: the outdoors. Often, our clients want indoor space that flows seamlessly into an outdoor living space. In other cases, we are designing a number of outdoor spaces, each with their own
