I went to a party at Clint and Holly Smith’s house. They are just too cool. You know the type. The type of people who don’t just think “gee, that would be fun” but actually DO it? So, they hired a Taco truck, added some music and had a party. The real hit, though, was their new addition. I couldn’t get over it. I LOVE it. I think you will too. So, here are the details:
The Smith’s house pre-renovation
The finished results. Don’t you love it?
Contractor: Dream Inc. Joe and Sunday Kovalick. [email protected]. Joe was the contractor, so he hooked the Smiths up with the stone mason, painters, floor installers, etc. Sunday helped them with choosing tile, flooring, bath fixtures, etc.
Residential Designer: Ryan Thewes, the residential designer who transformed the existing space and created the new spaces. www.ryanthewes.com
Exterior view of Smith home with garage door open into the family room. Isn’t this fun?
Interior view of garage doors, when closed. They let tons of light inside while maintaining privacy.
Decorator / Designer: Tory Fitzgibbon of Fitz Ritter Interiors (her email:f[email protected] ) helped design the patio, fire pit, and the finishing touches including the guestroom curtains and bedding, screened porch furniture (from Summer Classics), the magnetic wall and the layout of their existing furniture in the playroom. Her fee is now per $750 per room and she passes all received discounts onto her clients.

The Smith’s purchased their cork flooring from Expo (now closed). Meyers Carpet has a selection as well. The garage doors were ordered through Nashville-based Crawford Door Sales.
An easy to care for green choice, cork flooring is a great option.
Notice the stone patio designed by Tory Fitzgibbon.
The urban Fire Pit. A fire pit, a planter, a party cooler all in one!
“We are truly enjoying our new space. We practically live on the screened porch, and it is wonderful for the kids to have a space for Wii tournaments, board games and homework (not to mention having a confined space for all of those things).
