02 The work
Most portfolios show the photograph and stop. Each project here tells the rest: what the house had to do, what it's made of and why, how long each phase actually ran, and how architecture and building worked together. That's what you're really buying.

Solana Point, Alder Bay waterfront
A pavilion house on the point: a cantilevered walnut canopy, an infinity edge to the bay, and not one repeated detail.

Transitional · New custom home
Briar Hollow, Carrington foothills
Fieldstone, sand-float stucco and white-oak carriage doors. A hill-country house that will look as right in forty years as it did on day one.

Classical & heritage · New custom home
Calloway Lane, Alder Bay
A painted-brick Georgian at the head of a working pear orchard: true divided-light sashes, plaster cornices and proportions you can feel from the road.

Classical & heritage · Renovation & addition
Fenwick Lane, Old Alder Bay
A 1928 Tudor rebuilt from the studs while keeping every bit of its character: clinker brick, half-timbered gables and a kitchen that finally works.
2025
Modern · Renovation & addition
Larkin Terrace, Alder Bay heights
A 1961 hillside modern, opened up and restored in cedar and mahogany. The addition reads as if the original architect simply kept drawing.
2022
Transitional · New custom home
Hollis Road, Carrington valley
Board-and-batten cedar, a standing-seam roof and a granite stoop. A farmhouse without the costume, built for weather and grandchildren.
A small portfolio is the point. Eight homes a year means every house here had a principal on site weekly, the same superintendent throughout, and a budget book we'd happily show you, with names removed and numbers intact.
Begin
Start with the fit check (four questions, two minutes) or come straight to a first meeting. Either way, the numbers get said out loud.
