Our firm is excited to watch construction begin later this summer on this home which will be built on Lake Sunapee in NH. We were hired for the architectural and landscape design for their lake front home. Featured below are several renderings which illustrate how we convey the design to our clients.
BRINGING TOGETHER FAMILIES
Bringing together families-the number one reason why we enjoy what we do every day. For most of our clients, the dream of designing a custom home is solely based on creating warm gathering spaces for family and friends, in all seasons of the year. Below is a testimonial from one of our favorite clients, about working together with our design team and the many talented professionals who assisted in the evolution of turning their vision into reality.
"When we decided to build our dream house on a lake, we wanted to find an architectural firm who could help us think about how to design a timeless house that was functional and beautiful. We also needed an architect who could work with a relatively small site that had some constraints. Bonin Architects surpassed all of our expectations and created a home that truly exceeds our vision. They listened closely to what we wanted and responded with creative and thoughtful designs. In addition, they managed the project seamlessly.
We would definitely use the firm again and highly recommend them."
VOLUNTEERING IN ST. THOMAS
Last week, Kim & Jeremy Bonin, Principal Partners of Bonin Architects arrived in St. Thomas, USVI and spent five days in meeting with several group members involved in rebuilding areas affected by two category five hurricanes late last year. Some areas of the island are still without power, and the island is full of other groups offering assistance, such as FEMA, volunteer organizations from all over the world, and a multitude of line workers from all over the country.
Bonin Architects is volunteering design services and renderings for several projects. A permanent lobby structure to replace the existing damaged canopy and a new entry sign also damaged in the storms. Design for a four-unit employee housing building which was severely damaged by both hurricanes when the roof was torn off, and a shelter from wind, sun, and rain for the restaurant encompassing outdoor seating
The island of St. Thomas is close to Kim & Jeremy’s hearts; they own a property on the island which was fortunately not damaged. Volunteering services and staying active in the community both locally and afar is essential to all members of Bonin Architects & Associates and will continue to be a service we are happy to offer whenever possible.

A DRONE PHOTO FROM A HAPPY CLIENT
We have THE best clients! Our firm designed this award-winning home and it was built 8 years ago. Our clients have since sold their business and are now retired. We've remained in touch over the years, and families like this are the reason why we love what we do every day!
Here is a drone photo they sent us, along with this email which reads in part:
"We still very much love our home...very regularly during cocktail hour, we'll look around and say...'can you believe this place???' Eight years later, we are blessed to have this home and now that I don't have to travel for work every week, I actually finally live here full time, and I love every minute of it!"
