Doughboys'Industry Standards' call for particleboard shelving and fake PERGO flooring. Double pane Anderson Windows with PHONY PLASTIC muntins. Yuk!
We strive for authenticity at all costs...and it usually costs less to be authentic. 100 year floor. Floor boards pictured are over an inch and a half thick. They came from a barn on the property. The floor can be sanded and refinished every couple years for the next 100 years. The windows are like 60 years old. No need for FAKE PLASTIC SHIT, we had them reglazed.

The McKernon GroupThis barn addition was accomplished by dismantling an antique timber frame and resurrecting it alongside a beautiful 19th century farmhouse in Vermont.
What makes this property even more special, is that all native Vermont elements went into the build, from the original barn to locally harvested floors and cabinets, native river rock for the chimney and fireplace and local granite for the foundation. The stone walls on the grounds were all made from stones found on the property.
The addition is a multi-level design with 1821 sq foot of living space between the first floor and the loft. The open space solves the problems of small rooms in an old house.
The barn addition has ICFs (r23) and SIPs so the building is airtight and energy efficient.
It was very satisfying to take an old barn which was no longer being used and to recycle it to preserve it's history and give it a new life.
ZeroEnergy DesignThis vacation residence located in a beautiful ocean community on the New England coast features high performance and creative use of space in a small package. ZED designed the simple, gable-roofed structure and proposed the Passive House standard. The resulting home consumes only one-tenth of the energy for heating compared to a similar new home built only to code requirements.

Hill Farm Furniture LtdThis large kitchen in a converted schoolhouse needed an unusual approach. The owners wanted an eclectic look – using a diverse range of styles, shapes, sizes, colours and finishes.
The final result speaks for itself – an amazing, quirky and edgy design. From the black sink unit with its ornate mouldings to the oak and beech butcher’s block, from the blue and cream solid wood cupboards with a mix of granite and wooden worktops to the more subtle free-standing furniture in the utility.
Top of the class in every respect!
