REMODELINg
& RENOVATIONS
Elevate Your Space is a luxury residential remodeling and construction practice creating highly considered interiors, exteriors, additions, and complete environments. Before plans are drawn or directions defined, time is taken to understand the property, the people who live there, and what the project must ultimately make possible. From there, architecture, function, material, and execution are brought into alignment.

ELEVATE
YOUR
SPACE
DESIGNING THE ARCHITECTURE OF TRANSFORMATION
Most remodeling begins with what can be seen. We begin with what must be understood: how the space is lived in, what it should make possible, and what the next chapter requires. By looking beyond the surface to movement, proportion, light, function, material, and future use, we create environments that feel coherent, intuitive, and lasting.

THE APPROACH

considered before it is constructed
behind the work
The most successful environments are not defined by a single finish, fixture, or visual gesture. They begin with an understanding of the property, the people who inhabit it, and the life the completed space must support.
EYS establishes that understanding before a direction is set. The architecture, function, material, and execution develop as parts of one coherent whole.
The work moves across three layers.
CONSIDERED BEFORE IT IS CONSTRUCTED
THE ELEVATE YOUR SPACE DIFFERENCE
The most successful environments are not defined by a single finish, fixture, or visual gesture. They begin with an understanding of the property, the people who inhabit it, and the life the completed space must support.
EYS establishes that understanding before a direction is set—so architecture, function, material, and execution develop as parts of one coherent whole.
SHAPED FOR WHAT COMES NEXT
Every decision is considered not only for how the environment will look at completion, but for how it functions, evolves, and continues to support the people within it over time.
PERSONAL STEWARDSHIP
From the earliest conversation through completion, clients are guided with close attention, informed judgment, and a consistent point of view.
CLARITY THROUGH COMPLEXITY
Significant projects involve hundreds of interconnected choices. EYS brings structure and discernment to those decisions, helping clients move forward with confidence while protecting the integrity of the larger vision.
Tailored & Considered
Architecture, interiors, exteriors, movement, material, and daily use are considered in relationship to one another—not as a series of isolated decisions.
DISCOVERY WITH DEPTH
We begin by listening, observing, and asking the questions that reveal how the property functions, where it falls short, what is worth preserving, and what the project must ultimately make possible.

A considered renovation of a 1926 School Lane Hills residence, introducing new spaces and functionality while honoring the home’s original architectural character.
At the heart of the project is a new Four Seasons room designed to feel as though it has always belonged, featuring custom true divided-lite mahogany windows and doors. The renovation also includes a custom mahogany apothecary-style kitchen window, historically sympathetic detailing, custom poplar millwork designed to complement the home’s existing profiles, built-in cabinetry, and carefully integrated interior updates throughout the residence.

Specialty architectural craftsmanship within a custom estate residence, completed in collaboration with the project team.

THE MIND BEHIND THE METHOD
For more than three decades, Ed Garner has helped clients transform the environments that influence how people move, gather, create, and connect. His experience as a builder, business owner, and trusted advisor has given him a perspective that extends beyond construction alone. He sees how a space moves, where it resists, what it asks of the people within it, and what must change for the environment to function as a cohesive whole.
His work is guided not by a predetermined style, but by close listening, disciplined decision making, exceptional craftsmanship, and the belief that an exceptional space deserves an equally considered experience. Ed remains personally involved from early vision through completion, helping clients navigate consequential decisions, preserve the integrity of the project, and move forward with clarity and confidence.
The result is more than a renovation. It is a coherent, enduring environment considered in its entirety, shaped around the people who inhabit it and what the space must ultimately make possible.

ED GARNER,
Elevate Your Space works across the full residential environment. From an individual area in need of rethinking to a property-wide transformation. The scale may change. The depth of consideration does not.
EVERY LAYER, integrates
AS ONE
the complete approach
Interior architecture, material, function, light, circulation, exterior presence, and the relationship between inside and out are considered as parts of one connected environment.
The work may involve a singular area or multiple spaces brought into greater alignment.
INTERIORS & EXTERIORS
From a new residence to the complete reimagining of an existing property, EYS brings architecture, interiors, exteriors, function, and lived experience into one coherent vision.
These are projects in which the environment is considered in its entirety rather than assembled one decision at a time.
FULL-ENVIRONMENT TRANSFORMATION
Existing homes are reworked with respect for what is worth preserving and clarity around what must change.
Projects may range from focused remodeling to significant reconfiguration and additions designed to feel inherent to the original property.

I have hired many contractors and Ed, by far, was the Best I’ve ever hired, and I would never consider hiring anybody else ever again. He is kind, wonderful communication, impeccable, workmanship, delivers as promised, and cares deeply about what he does. It shows in every phase of the project. I’ve never had such an amazing experience and he was delightful and my project is amazing!!! You absolutely cannot go wrong with Ed. That’s MY guarantee! Thank you again and I look forward to our next project!
