Welcome to the porch! In our very first episode, we dive into why we call ourselves the hopeless purists — a designer and builder duo who still get worked up over trim profiles, window sashes, and old-house charm most folks overlook.

We’re talking about where this obsession started, how it shapes our work (and marriage), and why we think details are worth fighting for in a world hooked on shortcuts and square footage.

So pull up a chair on our back porch and make yourself at home.
