The layout of the original home was confining in the sense that each room could not be expanded to gain square footage. Building up was the only option.

Besides jobsite signs, we do no marketing. We mainly focus on the higher-end areas of Scottsdale and Paradise Valley.

Surprisingly, many of our clients who are in their 50s are already planning ahead and incorporating design elements to help in the aging process.

We had to design the staircase that led to the second floor ? this soon became the focal point of the entire house. We also built a wine cellar and utility closet underneath the staircase to maximize space.

The final project left the homeowners with a new study and exercise room, basically three master bedrooms, a guest house and outdoor living area.

We see many of our clients requesting built-in barbeques, fireplaces for colder nights and even (cool spray) misters for those hot Arizona days.

The landscaping was totally redone since we added a circle driveway in the front and wiped out most of the existing to allow room for construction. We also re-did the tile work on the steps to the guest suite over the garage, patched areas around the pool and installed new tile on all the new patios.
