I’ve recently picked up a few new clients and have a few new design projects on the boards that I thought I’d share. The first is a house originally designed by my mentor, David Davenport, which he’s allowing me to take over on and carry through construction in his place. It’s a great little modern summer house for a couple whose main residence is in Nag’s Head, the new home will be in Columbia, North Carolina near the Alligator River National Wildlife Refuge.

Arising out of a concern for cost of this same house, I developed an alternate scheme with a more stripped-down program, with spans and framing focused on efficiency of building materials, and a very different aesthetic approach. While not being built in this location, I will offer this as an off-the-shelf set of plans in the future if there is sufficient interest.

I’ve also begun a small renovation and addition project to an existing craftsman house in downtown Raleigh. This is a contextual response to the existing home, with detailing intending to blend with the structure, while exploring a level of craft and unique detailing for the new outdoor living areas.

There has also been some progress on the Rebuilding Raleigh project. I’ve been working with a handful of clients, and have a couple first-pass designs on the drawing boards. While these are early passes, and will likely change between now and construction, I’ve decided to share them here.
An early commercial project just finished permitting in Holly Springs as well, and some in-construction photos of that should be coming soon.
