GILDAY RENOVATIONS
SILVER SPRING, MARYLAND
Over the years, this client invested in multiple renovation projects to improve
the interior of his home. He then felt compelled to improve the home's front
exterior to bring it up to the aesthetic level of the interiors. Adding more
emphasis on the front entry door, which was dwarfed by an oversized light
fixture and bay window above, was the solution. The brick façade was
continued beyond the existing roof line, terminating in a gable. The entry was
also enlarged to be more in proportion with the bay window, which received
a proportioned roof treatment with a graceful downward sweep.

CG & S DESIGN-BUILD
AUSTIN, TEXAS
This project came about because the homeowners did not trust the exterior's
construction quality and they weren't happy with the style. Prior to the purchase,
the residence had been flipped by someone looking to make a quick buck and
corners were cut to achieve the greatest return on investment. They requested
a well-built, low-maintenance exterior with a variety of cladding materials to
lend some visual interest to a home that was very monochromatic. A new metal
roof, wood-look composite planks on portions of the exterior, and exterior
sconces that complement the cladding and chimney caps met their request.

FULL CIRCA, INC.
PORTLAND, OREGON
Constructed in 1906, the Louis G. Pfunder House represents an early example
of Craftsman architecture, and is on the National Register of Historic Places. The
client wanted a restoration specialist who could recommend and execute design
details for their deteriorating porch railing components. Severe dry rot had
impacted the porch railings and the lower railing had completely deteriorated. The
project involved removing 70 percent of the deteriorated existing railing system,
introducing longer-lasting construction material choices, creating reproduction
millwork, and the masterful reinstallation of all new work amidst the existing historic
building fabric.
