One of the most frequent requests we have from our clients is to consider special design features for their nearest and dearest pets. From adventurous cats to enthusiasm filled puppies and Instagram dog stars, our human clients’ pets range far and wide. In projects both past and future, we’ve incorporated dog runs and cat perches,

We are very excited to share a construction update for a project that has been in the works for a few years. Gardiner Farmhouse is a modern home for a growing family that craves a deep connection with the outdoors. Sited on farmland, the home takes inspiration from two barn structures already located on the
