Southfield, Michigan | A new homeowners asked Tim Nichols Architect to design a fireplace surround using an exquisite onyx stone which had been saving for this purpose. The design project was a success. They asked us to provide design assistance on a new kitchen and dining room. As soon as those were complete, our clients engaged us for a whole house renovation to transform the layout, central stair, a two-car garage and, especially, an in-law suite.
