Peponi Pine Lodge
Peponi Pine Lodge is a 4,000 square foot, 1 story residence with 6 car garage, located out in the piney woods of east Texas. The key to the design was to maximizing the natural light into the heart of the interior, as well as frame the beautiful views of the surrounding forest. This house is a testament to what can be done with cement-fiber lapped siding. If you really take the time and come up with great details, this material can be as nice as natural stone. The almost all white color scheme gives this home a cathedral-like quality, which stands out against the browns and greens of the trees. I know the homeowners are as happy as I am with the finished product. More

The Griffis Residence
It is a 4,600 square foot, one story, Mediterranean style residence, with 3,100 square feet of garage space, a grand front courtyard space and expansive rear porches. The key to this project was to design the residence to take advantage of its wooded one acre lot, without losing the sense of human scale and proportion. A perfect home for a car collector. Located in Bender's Landing Estates, Spring, Texas. More

The Helton Residence
Here are a few photos of the great room in my house. I designed it 14 years ago, and it is located in the Bender's Landing subdivision, which is in Spring, Texas. Many of my clients like to see an example of an open floor plan, and my great room is a good example. It is a 600+ square foot room, that encompasses the living room, dining room, foyer, music room, and a little extra space in the middle. It is open to the kitchen/bar/breakfast area on one side, and to the hallway that leads to the bedrooms on the other. More
