A new workshop and build space for a fellow creative! Seeking a space to enable this set designer to work from home, this homeowner contacted us with an idea for a new workshop. On the must list were tall ceilings, lit naturally from the north, and space for all of those pet projects which never found a home. Looking to make a statement, the building’s exterior projects a modern farmhouse and rustic vibe in a charcoal black. On the interior, walls are finished with sturdy yet beautiful plywood sheets. Now there’s plenty of room for this fun and energetic guy to get to work (or play, depending on how you look at it)!

Barn & Home Remodel

Reap Construction

Though their century-old barn was beautiful and majestic, it was also located in an inconvenient spot. We built a substantial new foundation, jacked up the barn, and repositioned it closer to the driveway. Finally, we patched the barn boards on the existing structure and build a garage addition off the driveway.
