A mini French château

A French château look with a small, but bold and powerful fireplace that is scaled so exquisitely.

I’ve grown to appreciate and prefer beautifully laid out residences where the rooms and transitional spaces have excellent scale and proportion.

Huge houses are really for big families. If you are a couple, a 3000 to 5000 square-foot house on one level is more than adequate space.

Have the master en-suite on the opposite side of the guest suites with the public rooms in the middle.

U-shaped floorplans are ideal for this. It creates the perfect terrace that can transition off to a well manicured lawn and pool.

Antique limestone Troughs back to good use

Not every day I get to re-appropriate an architectural element in a client's home back to its full purpose and functionality!

As of 2020 I have been growing my grass root community around ecological reuse of reclaimed limestone as a solution towards a better Eco-conscious lifestyle.

Community re-building focused on local farming, self-sufficiency, zero waste and toxic free life should be the norm and not some revolutionary act!

I've started on this ecological reuse path back in 2010 but its only now that I feel comfortable enough to be more public about my stone ecological activism.

Join me today as we all can play a small part in inspiring others to live a zero-waste lifestyle while transforming our individual households and businesses business into a better versions of ourselves.

Our homes can start looking nore natural and organic in lockstep with our bodies that can become healthier and toxins free while we Reuse, Restore, Rejuvenate & Rejoice.
