Innovator's Delight

This beautiful home is a great example of what happens when innovative clients work with talented craftsmen. We collaborated with our client to blend live edge American black walnut, rift and quartered white oak, custom fabricated steel, and reclaimed objects d’art to build a home with a steampunk feel. The design of this home is the perfect balance of big enough to entertain during the summer and cozy enough to live in year round. The wood beams, custom cypress siding, and beautifully crafted exterior stone work give the home a stately “Up North” feel.
