Wow, it’s been a long time since we’ve posted an official construction update for Cat Hill. I was surprised when I looked back and saw the last one was from April… We have been sharing progress along the way on social media (here and here) so maybe you’ve been keeping up… If not I guess that will make today’s

This week’s design inspiration is one I’m happily adding to my future house bucket list! A true modern wine cellar, a wine display cabinet, or a wine room? – Whatever we want to call it, the concept is the same, but there are many variations in design. Below are a few of the images we

Wood + Metal Siding is going up in Chattanooga! We’ve been talking about it for the last couple of months in the Newsletter, and now we have fun photos to share! …Exterior cladding is going up at CasaNooga! There’s been amazing progress at CasaNooga – our modern home project under construction in Chattanooga, TN. The wood

A perfect post for celebrating Summer!… We are designing a home for a client who is planning to spend a lot of weekends cooking outdoors. Looking through the images we’ve collected for inspiration, I have to admit I have a bit of Outdoor Kitchen Envy.

These 2-day retreats are oriented around personal and professional growth sessions and team-building activities. I try to make sure these are inspiring, thoughtful, and most of all collaborative. A couple of weeks ago we headed up to the Hudson Valley for

House of the Day Inspiration –  2019 Favorites A few years ago we started contributing to a group “archi-challenge” with other small firm residential architects. Once a week, we each share a House of the Day on social media as a way to celebrate architecture and encourage engagement with other small architecture firms. Over the

We are SUPER excited and proud to present our favorite modern chalet in the Hudson Valley: Chalet Perche! Technically the house part of this project was completed a few months ago, but, since the landscaping is integral to the design of the house, we waited to photograph it until Spring. One of our clients for Chalet Perche is

As our project for Campion Farms moves forward, we thought we’d share some of the design inspiration behind one of its top-wish-list features – a modern screened-in porch. Particularly during the summer in the Northeast, screened-in porches can be the most lived in part of the home. As spaces that are neither entirely interior nor

Corten Cladding + Bully Hill Corten steel is on site and being installed at Bully Hill. It is a unique type of steel that naturally rusts very quickly and becomes more rigid as it rusts. This is our first house to be clad in corten, and the deep color as well as durability make it a
