1914 Nun Street
A 1931 bungalow in Wilmington, North Carolina
maintains the historic charm of the original home
while updating the structure for modern living. Locat-
ed in the transitional Ardmore neighborhood, the 1300
sq. foot home is a classic shotgun floorplan. The front
door enters into the living room with bedrooms along
the right side of the home.
The full renovation included programming, schemat-
ics and construction administration, as well as finish
selections and interior design. Reusing materials from
the home and respecting the original design details
were major design, cost and sustainable considerations.
Renovations were contracted in 2006.
The home was featured in the 2008 Azalea Festival Tour
of homes.

Harborside Marina & Shipstore
at Marina Village
St. James Plantation in Southport, North Carolina, is the
number one selling Coastal Carolina golfing and
boating community since 1991. In 2007 the Shipstore at
Harborside, the community’s private marina store, was
renovated with a vintage nautical aesthetic.
The design required flexibility due to future plans of
retail expansion. The interior of the shipstore, exterior
seating and deck landscape were designed as a southern
“boardwalk”, an appropriate genre for the reitrement
community demographics. Due to the location on the
intercoastal waterway highly durable finishes and fix-
tures were required.
design schematics were also presented for the other
retail components, but due to budget cuts were not
realized on the original timeline.

Marina Village Logos
In Harborside at Marina Village the expansion of the
marina retail space included a high-end provision and
clothing store and a restaurant. At St. James’ request,
logos were designed for Waterman’s Provision Company
and Tommy Thompson’s Grille.
The logos reflect the local nautical heritage of South-
port and reference the vintage aestheic of the marina
boardwalk and shipstore.
Since the logos debuted, logoed clothing have been a
primary source of revenue for the marina. They are the
number one selling retail item at the Marina Village.

HarborWalk Condominiums
Across from the Marina in St. James Plantation is
HarborWalk, a luxury condominium complex. The model
home interiors accentuate the home’s natural light
and high ceilings. The furniture and fixtures reflect
sophisticated nautical comfort by blending wood, fab-
ric, and color with silver metal accents. The design is
warm and inviting to all without presenting itself as a
generic model home.
Overall interior and exterior fixture and finishes
for the units were also selected by LHL Design. Design
and finish selection assistance for HarborWalk own-
ers on behalf of St. James Plantation was also a service
provided by the design firm.
12. Conceptual detail for master
bedroom window treatment.
Hydrangea Drive
A master suite renovation included a demolition of
the old bathroom and reconfiguration of the suite
circulation and storage. Hutton Mebane designed and
managed the project. Design intent was a contempoary
variation on traditional, which was evident through-
out the colonial revival home’s contemporary art
collection. Inerior design consulting services were
provided for bedroom layout. Bedroom furnishings were
existing.
Lighting, intelligent use of space and natural light
were all primary considerations in the design and were
successfully incorporated. A mid-century sideboard
takes on new life as a vanity surrounded by marble tile
and a sleek soaking tub.
15. View toward La Rambla of Harvest
Vineyard in the summer
and autumn.
Harvest Urban Vineyard
Behind La Boqueria in Barcelona, Spain is a small plaza
connected to the famous market. Similar to the agri-
cultural lands surrounding the city, the world’s larg-
est urban vineyard was designed to glean organic waste
from the market to produce compost. The compost in turn
fertilizes the Urban Vineyard and produces cava, a local
variety of sparkling wine.
The Vineyard’s monumental design creates a landmark
within the cityscape, as well as a revenue producing
structure for the community. The existing parking under-
ground garage houses the composter and winery with sys-
tems designed to carry materials up and down the trellis
structure for planting, irrigation and harvesting. The
seasonal changes of the foliage adds another spectral,
and natural, element to the urban site.

Community Shelter
Parasitic structures were incorporated into an existing,
but empty, bank building in the heart of Asheville, North
Carolina. The design is a temporary housing structure
for patrons who have found themselves homeless due
to the economic crisis. The new structures reutilize
materials removed from the existing structure and
parasite onto the building’s structural skeleton.
The concept of the design was based on the traditional
bungalow, a vernacular home design found in Asheville.
Existing building floors create neighborhoods and
streetscapes with sidewalks and porches influenced from
this all-American sense of home.
Environmental systems for utilities were also a
functional and sustainable design consideration.

Design Within Reach
Clemson University Post Office
Ikon/Ricoh Office Systems is renovating the University
Post Office at the Student Union for improved circula-
tion, services and interior design. The facility must be
completed on a tight budget as the Student Union will
be rebuilt in the next few years.
Ikon/Ricoh requested the design have the look of a so-
phisticated coffee house and include new logistical sys-
tem and point of sale kiosks. The design utilizes highly
durable contract fabrics, warm wood tones and sleek
silvers to contrast the exuberant Clemson Orange and
Purple. Exterior finishes, entry design and signage were
also selected.
Design has been approved and the project is in progress.

23. Understanding sight lines formed
by existing buildings and how to
utilize them in the hotel design.
Port Terraces, Genoa, Italy At the Charles E. Daniel Center in Genoa, Italy,
students have the opportunity to experience Europe
and its architectural heritage. Additionally, studio
projects are designed for European lifestyles and
needs. Port Terraces is a design that utilizes a former
industrial site on the port harborline in Genoa. Reclaim-
ing the port for use by the people, the design embraces
the Italian love of living out of doors, open piazzas and
a reconnection with the water, which has historically
been Genoa’s lifeblood.
Open Piazzas and covered bridges draw people to the
waterline where the bustle of activity continues into
the Marina. The hotel’s form is designed as a refer-
ence to the terraced mountainsides of Genoa, with an
emphasis on the discovery of views: of the sea, of the
mountains, of the piazza, of the people.
Project is in progress.
