Coastal doesn’t have to mean seashells and blue stripes.

For this beach condo, the goal was something quieter: light finishes, natural textures, warm details, and a palette that feels at home by the water without trying too hard to say it.

The result is relaxed, bright, and timeless, which feels just right for a place meant to be enjoyed by generations of family.

Trade walkthroughs are an important part of our design process, giving our trade partners a chance to see the project firsthand as we work toward putting the contract together.

They’re also a pretty great opportunity to make new friends. 💖🐾

We maintain that project meetings are just better with dogs involved.

ADUs sound simple enough: add a smaller living space to your property and create more room for family, guests, or rental income.

The reality? What you can build may change completely from one Seacoast town to the next.

We teamed up with local real estate expert Christina Donlon of Alex & Associates Realty to take a closer look at the rules, limitations, and early questions worth asking before planning an ADU in Maine or New Hampshire.

Some projects stay with you long after they’re finished. This is one of them.🤍

This circa-1900 beach cottage was one of those projects that will always have a special place in our hearts. Thoughtfully reimagined for modern living while preserving the character that made it so special, it’s a transformation we’ll never forget.

Now we’re honored to share that our wonderful clients have graciously agreed to open their home as part of an upcoming home and garden tour benefiting an incredible local cause: rettsroost.

Their generosity will allow guests to experience this beautiful home in person while supporting an organization doing meaningful work in our community, and we couldn’t be more grateful to be a part of it.

If you’ve ever wanted to step inside this renovation beyond the photos, this is your chance. We’d love to see you there!

✨This isn’t just a prettier living room, it’s a
room that’s finally meant to be lived in. Once dark and underused, it’s now a bright, welcoming space where the family will naturally gather.

Breaking ground is more than the start of construction.🪏

It’s the moment months of thoughtful planning begin taking shape. Every design decision, every detail, every conversation has led to this point.

Now it’s time to dig in, and we couldn’t be more excited to bring another vision to life.

A lot has been happening behind the scenes lately… We can’t wait to share more ✨
