May Construction
Spring Island
This house (and its owners) are special to us. While its not uncommon for us to revisit a Frederick + Frederick house to renovate or add-on, we don’t typically get the opportunity for so many projects at the same house. This house was built around 2000, then we built the guitar & quilting studio and a courtyard for new owners (photos of that project are here). We won an honor award from AIASC for this phase of the project.
Then we did a bathroom renovation and modified the gable end in the front of the house. Now we are renovating the kitchen, pantry and downstairs bedroom. Demo is complete and framing is underway!
Cane Island
Siding is mostly complete, decking and window trim are being installed. The house on Cane Island is looking great!
Brays Island
This big renovation project is nearing completion. It is a really unique project and we can’t wait to see the final product soon!
Cane Island House
Our latest project on the boards is a new house on Cane Island, right down the road from our office. The clients requested a light filled spaces and clean lines. They like lowcountry style, but want a more contemporary take on the tradition. The inspiration photos they shared with us featured symmetrical elevations. Because the lot is fairly tight, we couldn't achieve perfect symmetry. We chose to bring this element in with "local symmetry" instead.
These are the drawings for the Cane Island House. The site plan is where we start, then we create floor plans and elevations, along with a large pile of balled-up tracing paper in the recycling bin.
