Kellets renovation and construction guides

One strategy, organized around the property and the work

Choose the path that best matches your property, priorities and operating constraints. Each guide connects planning questions, relevant experience and the next practical step.

Residential transformation

Plan the home as one connected system

Start with how the household lives, then coordinate layout, finishes, structure, building systems and approvals around one project brief.

Connected proof

Carriage house foundation reconstruction

A documented structural intervention: the existing carriage house had no foundation, so the structure was lifted and supported, the main level was excavated by hand, and a mechanical crawlspace was created below.
