We're not satisfied until you are. Period.    


Greetings Friends of WDC 


2008 is turning out to be an exciting year!  We've won awards,designed and built some beautiful remodels and even had time to chip away at the list of internal to-dos every business owner thinks about.
 
We updated the ops manual, uploaded new technology and upgraded our website (more on that later). And we upsized the WDC World Headquarters (aka: WDC WHQ).

 Then, we looked up the emails of everyone-we-ever-knew, hoping to share what's up with us and figuring if we had time to write it, maybe you had time to read it.

With that in mind, welcome to our first issue of:

WDC Launches New Website

 The members of Team WDC Website spent months creating, tweaking, discussing, tweaking, negotiating, re-creating and tweaking again in a quest for a website that met our directive:

 "Design an internet presence that reflects our commitment to happy clients, creative design and beautiful craftsmanship...and have fun with it"

Let us know how we did.  Check out our completely remodeled internet home at:

WDC Remodels WHQ

In order to better serve our clients needs - and to show-off our design and construction skills- WDC recently remodeled and expanded our World Headquarters.  Dual purpose design -  now, as a comfortable office for 4  and as a future master suite or in-law unit - the WDC WHQ features a galley kitchen, full bath and enough natural light for the Louvre.  Designed in our signature blend of Cape Cod and Contemporary styles, the office is "built green" to minimize energy usage. A secret door, disguised as a bookcase, provides complete privacy for the attached residence.

What we're reading:

or in this case watching....

Like everybody else whose seen Randy Pausch's "Last Lecture", we're saddened by the death of such a funny, inspiring and wise man.  Here's a link to his video:

WDC Wins Chrysalis

We also took time for some "attention getting", an opportunity we're enjoying. Another on-going project is entering design and construction competitions - with some exciting results!  We recently received a 

2008 Regional Chrysalis Award
Whole House Remodel
  
Chrysalis Award logo 
 
 
Judged by editors and writers of Better Homes & Gardens, Woman's Day, Southern Living and Houseplans.com, the winners were selected from over 526 entries. The entries were judged on overall design, the creative use of space and materials, and the degree to which the project enhanced the original structure.
 
WDC's winning entry was a whole house remodel which we will feature in next month's report.  To get a sneak peak of this award winning project, click here
