jackson street
jackson street This 1902 Baltimore rowhouse still had most of its original moldings and details, but the old plaster walls and windows were neglected. We framed out a new, thin profile wall, which enabled modern insulation, new windows, and updated electrical, cable TV and high-speed internet services to be installed. New moldings were added faithfully re-creating the old profile.

dudgeon-monroe remodel
covered porch addition This early 1960’s home felt claustrophobic and the old sliding doors were drafty and no longer operated smoothly. By removing a partition between eat-in kitchen and living room and replacing the outdated doors with low-E Andersen casement windows and a patio door unit, we increased insulation, energy efficiency, and brought light and space to the living area. A new gas log fireplace and custom maple mantel complete the room.

webster street transformation We took an unused concrete pad rear lot and created a private urban oasis. The project includes a custom pergola, a sandstone patio and path, a custom privacy fence with Dutch door gate, raised flower beds and vegetable plot, as well as many perennial plantings. A flowering crape-myrtle tree creates amazing summer shade and color, while a beautiful cascading Japanese maple gives texture and fall color.

everybody's cafe sign
everybody's cafe sign We created a streetside sign with the company logo that is functional, visible and beautiful. The sign stanchions are fabricated from indestructible industrial steel that is both elegant and massive. The raw steel is finished with gun-bluing patina and weatherproof carnauba wax. The sign is illuminated at night by high efficiency, low-wattage LED lighting, which replaces neon.
