Multi-Family Projects

Not all of us choose to live in free-standing homes. Lifestyle or work choices may mean that we live in a townhouse or apartment style development.  This album is as much about innovation in design as any of our other albums are.  Enjoy 🙂

Traditional Homes

Traditional homes tend to have a substance and feel that just can’t be replicated with modern building techniques.  Of course, that has a great deal to do with the available building materials.  Today, we have precision mouldings and mass replication.  Let’s visit a time when everything was made or shaped by hand…

Contemporary Homes

Contemporary – a style restrained only by your imagination. We hope we can excite and stretch that very thing with these wonderful, inspirational homes.
