Excerpt via our website ~ The Gibraltar Cabin is a clever little cabin design that includes a porch with a very attractive eye-catching barrel arch at the entrance. The single door is complimented by an additional five foot wide double door on the gable end. The elegant country charm is achieved with the large barn sash windows and rustic board and batten siding and is protected by a green corrugated metal roof. The post and beam frame makes this cabin a strong backyard out-building. A sturdy interior work bench has also been included. This rugged and attractive design is beautiful from the front view. This versatile design can be configured for many uses. It will make a perfect cabin, tiny house, getaway retreat, art studio, home office, garden or potting shed, kids playhouse, a pool house. Fitted with large double doors, the Gibraltar cabin is very capable of handling all your storage needs. Any of our buildings can be customized to fit all of your needs. We offer insulation, plumbing and electrical packages; alternative choices for roofing, siding, flooring, windows, and doors; and other custom options such as built-in storage, decorative arches, cupolas, painting, staining, and flower boxes. Take a look at what we have to offer on our Options Pricing page or give our design team a call for a quote. The basic model of this style is available as cabin kits (estimated assembly time - 2 people, 32 hours), diy micro cottage house plans, or fully assembled micro cabins. Picture shows optional flower boxes.

This 400 SF guest loft cabin & ADU is set apart from the main-house which is down the dirt road and behind the trees. The tiny house sits beside a 75 year old cattle watering trough which now is a plunge for guests. The siding is corrugated galvanized steel which is also found on (much older) farm buildings seen nearby. The yellow sliding door is 6'-0" wide and 12'-0" high and slides into a pocket

This beautiful home showcases the Quarry Mill's Royal Dusk natural thin stone veneer. Royal Dusk is a colorful blend of natural Wisconsin dolomitic limestone. The stone showcases the variations in colors, shapes, and textures that a single quarry can produce. Due to the stone all coming from the same quarry, the mix of pieces aesthetically flow well together forming an old-world look. The base of Royal Dusk is the linear neutral grey pieces that soften the wall. From there, irregular mosaic style pieces are added to mix in a variety of colors. Lastly, a small percentage of seamface pieces are added to create yet another element of color and texture.​

This is a 100' long retaining wall on the side of the resident's property. Together we had the vision to transform this space. The space is private, but open to the street, and has been rented out for parking spots. I had hoped the owner would use this wall as an impetus to give up the parking, and let it become a park-let, but this has unfortunately not happened. Photo: Luz Marina Ruiz
