Project type

Renovation

Approximate whole-home finished area, including the lower level. The cost comparison uses this whole-home area, rather than a measured renovation area.

The project

Wood, stone and connected rooms.

A whole-home renovation with connected kitchens, baths, gathering spaces and outdoor living.

The approach

Exposed beams, natural wood cabinetry, stone and considered lighting give the spaces a shared material language. The kitchen and bar have their own functions while remaining part of the larger interior story.

How the home lives

A sequence of rooms that supports company and quiet, with the deck extending the living spaces outside.

Understanding the investment

The renovation. The outdoor living.
