Product Choice Product: R-Blade Pergola Size: Size: 81’ x 21’ 9” (1,643 Sq Ft) Options: Motorization, Embedded LED lights, Custom support columns Color: Custom Match – SW Alabaster White Benefits: Adjustable pergola roof creating shade for pool deck and lap pool This luxurious home boasts a stunning courtyard and captivating columns that draw inspiration from classic European architecture. Perched atop the house is a rooftop pool deck with breathtaking views of the surrounding landscape. However, the intense heat of the sun during the day made the area uncomfortably hot for relaxation and entertainment. The ingenious solution was to install a pergola pool cover that seamlessly blends with the home's refined aesthetic, providing shade and rain protection. Now, this rooftop oasis is the perfect place to unwind and enjoy the outdoors in style.

A small permeable concrete patio was installed in the small backyard of this beach house. The patio created a more usable space, replacing a small lawn, which was often wet, muddy and hard to grow grass. Now the family has a place to gather around the firepit.

Enhancing a home’s exterior curb appeal doesn’t need to be a daunting task. With some simple design refinements and creative use of materials we transformed this tired 1950’s style colonial with second floor overhang into a classic east coast inspired gem. Design enhancements include the following: • Replaced damaged vinyl siding with new LP SmartSide, lap siding and trim • Added additional layers of trim board to give windows and trim additional dimension • Applied a multi-layered banding treatment to the base of the second-floor overhang to create better balance and separation between the two levels of the house • Extended the lower-level window boxes for visual interest and mass • Refined the entry porch by replacing the round columns with square appropriately scaled columns and trim detailing, removed the arched ceiling and increased the ceiling height to create a more expansive feel • Painted the exterior brick façade in the same exterior white to connect architectural components. A soft blue-green was used to accent the front entry and shutters • Carriage style doors replaced bland windowless aluminum doors • Larger scale lantern style lighting was used throughout the exterior
