Charming Carriage House We were honored to design and oversee the transformation of this garage apartment into the Mother-in-Law suite dreams are made of. This new space was fully equipped with efficiency, yet lacked the character and style of our client. She wanted something soft, elegant, and comfortable for visiting guests. Our goal was to maximize the space she had …
Hideaway Hangout

The building had already been beautifully restored and adaptively reused as condominiums. The client loved the airy open feel and architectural features, but wanted something more upscale and not as neutral. After spending time in the mediterranean, she …
North Florida Land Trust
The North Florida Land Trust is a nonprofit organization committed to protecting and preserving the natural heritage of North Florida. And while their scope of interest is primarily land, it only makes sense that they would adaptively reuse a historic building when they began to outgrow their previous office space.

Historic Home
