One of my designs is on the market. This started as a small, aged house with not a lot of style. I designed for various additions and remodels while adding a raised roof/ceiling with lots of glass across the rear of the house.

A partial screenshot of one of my latest client designs. This started as a very expensive, poorly designed Barndominium. With a few tweeks, the space will still be open, light & airy but we have now utilised a lot of wasted floor space while saving the owners a lot in construction costs. If you are looking to build a new forever home, renovations & additions or an investment property, I would love to assist you.

This is a snippet of my latest design project that started out as major renovations & additions. The owner decided to demolish the existing home and start again. This is a generous sized custom designed 5 bedroom + office, 3-1/2 bathrooms and 3 living areas with large outdoor covered Patios for outdoor entertaining.
If you are not content with your current home and wish to reimagine the design or start again with a complete new-build, please reach out to discuss your wants and needs. I have over 40 years design and building experience and can incorporate solar passive and rainwater collection & use into your home. I look forward to working with you.

Designing a large home is easy - the challenge is designing something small. I recently had a client who wanted to redesign a 2 bed/1 bath home into a 3 bed 1-1/2 bath home. The original house had been remodeled over the years but the design & layout did not utilize the space to its best potential. He thought he would have to extend the 1170sqf house to create a third bedroom, but I have reimagined the layout.

This new layout relocates the Kitchen and opens the entire Living area as one room. The rear wall is to have 16ft of glass sliding doors, leading to the backyard and letting in lots of natural light. The Bedrooms have been reconfigured to provide 3 good sized rooms and the main now has a walk-in-robe.

If you have a small home that you would like to have reimagined or you are looking to build a new custom home, I can assist you with the designs - I look forward to working with you.

I was recently contracted to design a major addition to an existing home here in the area. The owner was very particular with her wants & needs and the desired look of the home. To say I delivered is an understatement.
The main Living area is to be extended, including a new Laundry & half-bath servicing this wing. The biggest want & need is the new Main Bedroom with walk-in-robe and generous Ensuite. The centerpiece is the new pool, visible from most rooms in the existing house and accessed from the new Living and Bedroom. There is a lot of glass to enjoy the views and some varied & interesting ceiling lines throughout, including the main roof covering a portion of the pool.
If you like your house & neighbourhood but would like it to be updated, I can help bring your wants & needs a little closer to reality.

I have just completed a concept design for a local home that was recently purchased. The proposal calls for some additions and a new, modern roof design; changing it from a traditional ranch-style to a modern, contemporary look. If you like where you live but would like to update your home, I am here to assist with your project.
