"I can't say enough about working with Diane at Carriage House II. I found them via an internet search. Diane keep me informed about every step of the project. Two of the chairs were done in a beautiful large paisley print, which they perfectly matched. The other four were done in a subdued brown tweed, subtly picking up the colors in the paisley print. They not only upholstered the chairs, but also strengthened them and fixed a broken one. The chairs are better then they have ever been. I can't thank them enough. My dining room has a designer look with these "new" chairs."

I have been a licensed architect since 1988, practicing in New Jersey and Pennsylvania. In 2005, I launched my own firm with emphasis on single family and multi-family residential design, commercial building design and fit-out and institutional design for public entities with a focus on administrative and justice projects. I have a wide and deep range of experience with residential, commercial and institutional clients. I work well with clients, developers, builders and construction managers. I understand the process and value of the primary project delivery methods including design-bid-build and design-build. Stylistically, my philosophy is to fit in with the local style, while maintaining integrity and fluidity of design. Architectural heroes: Frank Lloyd Wright, Louis Kahn, Frank Furness, Henry Hobson Richardson.

"David was professional, gave excellent recommendations and was a true pleasure to work with. Really willing to work with us on getting our project finalized and approved and was easy to reach with any questions or changes. Defintely recommend!"

At Metal Boutique, we pride ourselves on providing steel and glass products with superior quality, while offering competitive lead times and pricing. We have worked on projects with some of the most well known brands in retail: Whole Foods, Timberland and Urban Outfitters, as well as many high end offices. We understand that every brand and business is different, and how important it is to stand out in a competitive market. Most offices with glass walls use aluminum framing. Our steel and glass partitions can be an alternative option, one that boasts better durability with a more modern look. Whether you are looking for an industrial system, an interior glass partition to divide a space, or steel and glass office fronts with a slim profile, we have a system that will meet your needs. We also offer custom steel doors. We are knowledgeable about all types of hardware and can help you select the best option for your budget and design intent. Are you looking to do a glass feature wall or some decorative steel? We can help with that too! You can choose from one of our most popular finishes: a blackened steel patina for a more natural look or a matte black powder coat for a more consistent finish. We have several other standard finish options available, and you can customize your finish as well. Let us help bring your vision to life!

Custom Home Builders questions, answered by experts

Most cottages are around 1,000 square feet, making them smaller than most other styles. However, cottages are defined more by their decor and architectural focus on simplicity, functionality, and a connection to nature than they are by a rigid square footage or floor plan. While cottages are defined more by their charm and appearance than size, the smaller footprint does help maximize the comfort and charm, and it keeps the focus on connection to nature and family.

In most states, you can build an in-law suite on your property as long as you follow local building codes. However, it's important that you have enough space on your property to accommodate the new structure. A functional in-law suite in your backyard will require between 300 and 800 square feet of space.

While some highly experienced homeowners can frame a house independently, it is not advisable. You will need ample carpentry experience, a team of helpers, and professionals to sign off on your work to meet local building codes. For the safest outcome, we recommend buying or building a house with the guidance of professionals.

Start by researching local contractors with experience in cottage construction. Ask for references, check licensing and insurance, and review completed projects. Compare multiple bids, making sure each includes the same scope of work. A good contractor will communicate clearly, provide a detailed contract, and ensure all work meets code and safety standards.

Remodeling a house is often less expensive than building a new house. You can expect to pay an average of $100 per square foot when you are remodeling. The cost to build a house averages about $150 per square foot. When remodeling, though, some rooms cost more than $100 per square foot and some cost less. Use a home renovation cost estimator to accurately estimate your remodeling costs.
