A.M. Woodland Construction

This arbor is so much more than just a beautiful structure. It’s a critical architectural element that anchors the entire home and scales down the transition from the large house to the medium-sized walls.

To tie the whole design together, we carried the same gorgeous limestone used on the barbecue, hot tub, and columns right over to these stunning arbor and columns.

Serving as a deliberate “stopping point,” this custom arbor perfectly separates the vibrant pool yard from an expansive second outdoor room designed for tents, weddings, graduations, and everyday family fun!

Without these architectural layers, an outdoor space can easily feel flat and ordinary and we don’t do ordinary!

Collaborating with Patrick Cloonan on this incredible project was an absolute privilege!

After vs. Before. Believe it or not, these are the exact same spaces!

This cozy lakeside cabin recently underwent a complete interior renovation, purposefully redesigned to fit this family’s current needs.

By updating the floor plan and introducing modern amenities, we maximized every inch of available space.

Every square foot of this home was completely reimagined from the ground up. It’s now fully updated, highly functional, and ready for years of memories to come.
