Let’s build something together

“Summer afternoon— summer afternoon ... the two most beautiful words in the English language,” Henry James said. And I couldn’t agree more. As warm spring afternoons quietly become warmer summer afternoons, we find ourselves spending just as much time outdoors as in.

The grill is working overtime, your early spring garden plans are coming to fruition, and your spirit is boosted by the extra hours of sunshine. In this issue, find out how adding French doors can blend the lines between indoor and outdoor spaces.

Also, if you’ve wanted to upgrade your kitchen or bath or refresh other rooms in your home, we have a budget-wise kitchen and bath as well as two unique rooms that do double duty. Now you’re all set to take advantage of the coming season and those beautiful summer afternoons!
