Commitment to actively blog

Well, it’s obviously been quite some time since this blog has been update despite our best intentions.  We’ve been busy building and have been remiss in keeping up with things like this so we’re saying “out loud” to whoever might be “listening” that we’re committing to regularly update this blog.  

We will be posting all sorts of things from little details about projects, inspirations, noteworthy articles and also some entertainment along the way.  

So today’s post is about the fun in life.  I discovered, while visiting family in Oregon, the Solostove and had to have one.  It’s an amazing backyard, camping, anywhere fire pit/stove that is fun to use (including roasting marshmallows, hotdogs, etc) and produces an impressive amount of heat while producing a very low level of smoke (because of it’s design).  Fantastic addition to any backyard, camping kit, patio and a great way to unplug and bring people together.  

Here’s to more time around the fire enjoying the good things life has to offer…

This just in…

Here’s a glimpse of an Eichler remodel we’ve just completed. It was another fantastic project with the incredible folks at Ana Williamson Architect. A great house, a daring client and some amazing materials made this one to be proud of.

Community Service

Before – Note the sand bags in front of the door!

After – Full paint job, new drainage, pathways, etc.

As part of Rebuilding Together Peninsula’s National Rebuilding day, Mediterraneo coordinated over 130 volunteers to transform a Community Organization which provides services to lower income and immigrant families. It was a lot of work but a very rewarding experience.

AIA award winner!

These photos are of a recent project that we completed in Menlo Park — the results of partnering with Ana Williamson Architects and some incredible clients. The end result was an AIA award and some happy clients (and a happy dog too!) Check out the AWA site to see what’s new and exciting in the architectural world.
