Learning About Exterior Home Design

About Me

Hello, my name is Douglas Marley. Welcome. I am excited to talk about the finer details of exterior home design on this site. When I started renovating my home, I wanted to match every detail of my vision without deviating from the plan at all. When that was not possible, I began dreaming up ways to achieve the same design with the materials and techniques at my disposal. I become very adept at adjusting the work to fit my vision during this trying process. On this site, I hope to help others adjust their exterior renovation plans to fit each unique vision. Thanks for visiting.
