Everyone loves a great before & after, and this 1970’s River Ridge transformation was a fun one.

This kitchen and laundry space had remained untouched since the original construction of the home. After being lovingly passed down through generations, MLM was honored to help modernize the space while maintaining the heart of the home so another family can continue making memories here for years to come.

Hey hey, construction peeps! 👋🏽🏗️
Y’all loved our last quick video sharing obscure construction factoids, so here’s another one.

Taking the extra care to waterproof the deck framing before installing the deck boards is a critical—but often overlooked—step. This simple move helps protect against moisture damage, prevents rot, and keeps your deck performing (and looking good) for years to come.

It’s the details you don’t see that make all the difference.

Creating a bathroom that feels both timeless and current can be one of the biggest design challenges—but when done well, it creates a space that stays beautiful for years.

For this bathroom renovation on N. Rampart in New Orleans’ Bywater neighborhood, we kept the original fireplace as a stunning textural focal point and layered in neutral finishes with subtle variation in pattern and texture.

What makes this design especially functional long-term is its flexibility.

The expensive-to-change elements like tile, cabinetry, and plumbing fixtures were intentionally selected to feel classic yet interesting. That means the entire mood of the room could be transformed down the road with simple updates like paint color, light fixtures, and accessories.

That’s thoughtful design: creating a strong foundation that can evolve with your style over time.

A great kitchen doesn’t just look good the day it’s finished—it should look just as good years later.

This kitchen renovation on Arabella Street in the West Riverside neighborhood of New Orleans is a perfect example. Completed several years ago, the space still feels just as relevant and beautiful today as it did on day one.

Why? Because the design focused on timeless elements instead of trends—clean cabinetry, balanced finishes, and a layout that truly works for everyday living.

Good design gives you the best of both worlds: a space that feels current today and won’t feel outdated tomorrow.

If you’re planning a kitchen renovation, it’s worth thinking beyond trends and focusing on what will last.

From concept to completion, this Marigny renovation in New Orleans was a true 10/10. We had the opportunity to construct a custom breezeway that seamlessly connects the main house to the guest house—enhancing both functionality and architectural charm in one of the city’s most iconic neighborhoods.

Projects like this highlight what we love most about residential construction and historic renovations in New Orleans: thoughtful design, quality craftsmanship, and strong collaboration.

A big thank you to for the exceptional design and to our amazing clients, Dewey & Cardozie, for trusting us with their vision. We’re especially grateful for your kind Google review—it means everything to our team.

If you're planning a home renovation, addition, or custom build in New Orleans, we’d love to help bring your vision to life.

Modern touches combined with historic charm create a kitchen that is layered, textured, and visually interesting—without sacrificing the functionality a modern family needs.

This renovation on N. Rampart in the Bywater neighborhood is a great example of how to strike that balance. By preserving key historic elements while introducing updated materials and finishes, the space feels both fresh and authentic to the home’s character.

It’s a thoughtful approach to renovation that respects the past while enhancing everyday living.

Revisiting one of our favorite bathroom renovations on Gull St in the Lake Shore - Lake Vista neighborhood.

What makes this design so clever? It was created with the future in mind—giving two pre-teen girls their own private spaces, including individual walk-in closets, vanities, and toilet areas, while sharing a spacious walk-in shower and soaking tub.

The result is a highly functional layout that maximizes every square inch, promotes organization, and helps maintain harmony as they grow into their teenage years.

We love projects like this where thoughtful design meets real-life functionality.
