"I sat in a garage and invented the future." - Steve Jobs
Shown here is the exterior of a project we worked on with the talented, Beasley Architectural Group and Gretchen Simon of @gretchensimoninteriors. Together we took on this incredible project that included a basketball court, an in-home upper level boutique gym, full hall bathroom that included laundry, and a custom @braemarcabinetry wetbar in a new grand foyer. We were able to do this by connecting the detached garage to the existing house by adding a corridor. Attention to detail when picking and installing the stone was key to making this new addition look like it was part of the original structure.
Always think outside of the box, in this case, it was a garage.

It’s love at first sight for this #hisandhers bathroom and vanity!
We gave this relaxing monochromatic bathroom a pop of color and character with this beautiful tile design.

It's a beautiful day in a Marks-Woods neighborhood...
We're excited to get our latest project under way in #McLeanVA, stay tuned!
#designbuildrepeat #designbuild #homeconstruction #northernva #northernvirginia
Let's talk tile, design, and style!
Our clients needed help bringing their small bathroom to life with design and functionality. We were able to bring charm with a classic tile choice, a functional sink with beautiful hardware finishes, and a #clawfoottub for a timeless look.
It's the small details that make the big difference.

This custom built #wetbar has us ready for the weekend and is calling our names.
The custom cabinetry is from @braemarkitchenandbath and defintely gives this space a dramatic vibe with it's moody navy blue hue!
Are you a fan of color cabinetry?

The best of both eras!
This historic #OldTownAlexandria row-home gets a classic and timeless makeover.
The team of Marks-Woods, along with architect, Lyndl Joseph, AIA, and the interior designers of @decoratedinteriors, worked hard to preserve the historic architectural details while adding beautiful transitional elements to the three-story expansion.

Stocked and ready for the weekend! 🍷
Is there a better place in your home to cozy up next to? 🔥
Since your fireplace is the focal point of the room, make sure it stands out in a good way!
For this remodel, we added a fireplace surround tile in a #herringbone design. We also built a large mantle to resemble the traditional moldings in this home.

Our #contemporarykitchen design is effortless and a minimalist dream!
The dark grey island and backsplash against the white countertops, cabinetry, and appliances is the epitome of sleek. Can you spot the fridge?

What's black, white, and luxurious all over?
Our recent #arlingtonva bathroom renovation! We gave this bathroom a classic look with a #blackandwhite palette that created a fresh, relaxing, and stylish space.
Pro tip! Having a neutral palette/backdrop, like shown above, allows versatility for accessorizing fixtures in gold, brass and stainless steel. What would you chose?

Double the drama and we're here for it.
A trend that's on the rise in kitchens is dueling large-scale light pendants. They show off personality, act as a main-design element and tie together the beauty of tile, precious stone, and gourmet appliances.
Shown above is from our 3-story renovation on a historical #oldtownalexandria row home. To see the full remodel/addition, click our website in our bio!

No bad views here!
Adding these floor to ceiling windows is exactly what this lower level renovation needed. Aside from the open concept design, having these windows adds instant tranquility and allows natural light to completely flood this space. We call the #windowseat!

This deck has two seasons; indoor and outdoor!
Since last year, we've had more requests for creating an outdoor oasis at home that can be enjoyed all year long.
We love the way this new deck build and enclosure turned out 🏡
Have you thought about upgrading your current deck situation and outdoor living space? Let's schedule a consultation today!

New Year, New Week, New Gym!
Our clients wanted us to add a home gym that was bright and airy. How did we make this happen in a basement? We just kept digging! This custom home gym was created under a two-story addition and features 8 ft. ceilings to create the perfect space for working out. 🏋️♀️
We hope you're starting the first Monday of 2021 off strong! 💪

As we start 2021, we reflect on what was 2020. For obvious reasons, 2020 was difficult and relentless. For business owners alike it was the year of pivoting. For all of us, it was the year of staying home 🏡
Marks-Woods Construction proudly helped homeowners across DC and Northern Virginia turn their houses into homes they love and wouldn't want to leave. We go into 2021 hopeful. We have more projects coming up and are excited to continually help people see the hidden potential in their homes.
Happy New Year to all! 🥳🎉
