This is a side-entrance that was only being used by the occasional smoker. The client wanted to utilize this outdoor space and make it more fun, with a place to hang out and chat. We added a custom outdoor bench, two swing chairs, some colorful West Elm toss pillows, and a bunch of different sized globe lights up above. Some green turf also softens up the cement pad landing should someone want to relax and take off their shoes.

I often do small, one-off jobs that don't really fit into the category of an entire home remodel. This is where I put those photos.

design + community

The clients wanted to convert a small office into a secret room for meetings. We designed a concealed door with a wooden bookcase that pivots to open into the room. The wood on the wall was carried down the hall, around the corner, and along the front wall of the office lobby.
