The Vision

In the heart of Altadore, this infill project aimed to redefine modern luxury. The homeowners wanted a sleek, minimalist aesthetic that felt warm and inviting, not sterile. The vision centered on "organic modernism"—clean lines softened by natural textures.

A key requirement was integrating the indoor and outdoor living spaces to take advantage of the south-facing backyard.

    Total Project Duration

    14 weeks

    Completed in 4 phases

    The Transformation

    We installed floor-to-ceiling commercial-grade aluminum windows to flood the main floor with light. The kitchen features a massive 12-foot island with a waterfall edge in honed granite, contrasting beautifully with the white oak rift-cut cabinetry.

    To achieve the seamless indoor-outdoor flow, we installed a 16-foot sliding glass wall system that opens the living room completely to the cedar deck.

    The staircase is a structural steel mono-stringer with open risers, acting as a sculptural piece that allows light to travel through the home.

    Challenges We Solved

    Every project comes with unique obstacles. Here's how we overcame them.

    1

    ⚠️ Challenge

    Structural Spans

    ✅ Solution

    To support the open concept main floor without columns, we craned in a 25-foot engineered steel beam hidden within the ceiling system.

    2

    ⚠️ Challenge

    Complex Window Installation

    ✅ Solution

    The sheer size of the glass units required a specialized glazing team and crane lift for installation, requiring precise coordination and road closures.

    The Outcome

    The home is a masterpiece of light and space. It has been featured in local design publications for its bold use of texture and light.

    The renovation significantly increased the usable square footage by optimizing the layout and integrating the outdoor space as a seasonal room.
