Structure for the way you live outdoors

A porch can become your favorite place for coffee. A deck can bring family meals outside. A pergola can create a comfortable gathering spot in the garden. We design outdoor structures around the experiences you want at home.

Our carpentry work connects your home’s architecture with its surrounding landscape. We consider proportion, materials, circulation and the relationship to patios, kitchens and planting, bringing design and construction together through one coordinated team.

Begin with our Client Concierge. We will discuss your goals, property and scope, then recommend the right makeover consultation. Our Investment Guide and Buyer’s Guide can help you prepare.

Design

Elevate includes a preliminary sketch and project estimate. Lifestyle and Legacy include a 2D digital design, with one and three included revisions respectively. An optional 3D design add-on is available with Lifestyle and Legacy for an additional $500; it is not available with Elevate. Your designer confirms the scope, deliverables and timing for your property.
