Project 01: Tiny Home
The thought behind my home is to bring the exterior elements, inside, to create an environment that the user controls at a whim. I used what I knew to make a flow plan that suits such a small space, while keeping the modern amenities that we all enjoy like a full size kitchen and bathroom.

For Project 02; a prefab home in Georgia. I picked Sea Island, GA, because it has oceanfront property, and a golf course while being close to major areas such as Brunswick, and Savannah. My clients were a stock broker, and a chef, who acquired wealth in New York City, and then moved back to their home state of Georgia, wanting sea views. My home has over 30 windows and every part of the house is a nice place to be in, utilizing those ocean views, as well as the golf course on both sides of the home. The master suite has a panoramic deck to catch the sunrise over the ocean, and giving space for a balcony. I wanted a large lot for seclusion of the 3600 sqft. home, with lots of trees and a long driveway leading to a grand entrance. I ditched the idea of a grand entrance, for a more simplistic design and let the modern angles of the home speak for itself, and not be a distraction. Overall, I am very happy with the way the design was executed, and will use this as inspiration in the future.
