Report
There's a house on Water Street in Newburyport I have always admired. It has an arts and crafts style and I would pass it all the time and think 'what a gem'. Then Laine asked me to help him with his website and I found out he was the architect that designed the house. But there's more. It was a renovation and remodel job and you wouldn't believe what the house looked like before his magic touch.
He completely transformed the building. As I went though his portfolio it was evident that he can visualize, and has mastered the ability to put ideas on paper, solidify design, then actually do the build
