Earlier this month we were back at PRO New England’s Youth Remodeling Career Day in Bolton, where more than 500 high school students spent the day framing walls, laying tile, installing windows, and talking with people who work in design and construction. Our job was the architecture side: what a designer actually does, how a sketch turns into a buildable plan, and the different ways into the field.

We keep coming back because students make better choices when they’ve seen the work up close. Our founder, Glenn Travis, chaired the board of NARI of Eastern Massachusetts for a decade before it became PRO New England, so this one is close to home.

Thanks to and the volunteers who run the day.

This event and the other ways we work with schools, industry groups, and our home town of Ashland are collected here: gmthomedesigns.com/about/community

Boston Globe Magazine featured this Somerville bathroom in its round-up of bathroom design trends, and ReModern Builders, LLC earned it. Our design, their build. A game of inches: tight footprint, mechanicals to route through every space, and a finish level the clients cared about deeply. They handled all of it. Good partners make the hard ones look easy.

Thanks to Marni Elyse Katz for including the project.

Before anyone commits to a number, we walk the site with the along with our build partner and their subcontractors. The framer, electrician, plumber, and HVAC contractor all see the real conditions and ask questions on the spot. That way they can price their work with confidence instead of guessing, and surprises surface early, not mid-construction.

Most spring and summer projects are designed in the fall and winter. Remodelers nationally report more inquiries and fuller schedules heading into next year, so the homeowners who start design now are the ones ready to build when the ground thaws. If you’re thinking about a remodel or a new home for next year, this is a good time to start the conversation.

What are homeowners choosing for their kitchens this year? The 2026 Houzz Kitchen Trends Study surveyed 1,780 of them, and a few patterns stand out: warmer wood finishes, more built-in storage, and kitchens designed for the long run.

Sixty Massachusetts towns, including Ashland, Natick, Newton, and Boston, now build new homes to the state's highest energy standard. We've been designing this way for a long time. In 2013 we designed six Net Zero homes in Ashland that produce as much energy as they use. If you're planning a new home, your town's code shapes the design from the start, so it's worth knowing which one applies before you sketch a floor plan.

Thinking about an ADU? Massachusetts approved more than 2,000 of them under the new housing law, and a new state program helps homeowners find out whether their property is a good fit. Before you talk to anyone about floor plans, it helps to know what you want the space to do: house a parent, host long visits, or earn rental income. Our free ADU decision guide walks you through those questions in a few minutes.

Most homeowners who renovate now plan to stay at least another 11 years, and nearly half call their home a forever home (Houzz 2026). That changes how you design. You're not choosing finishes for resale anymore; you're planning for how your household will change: a first-floor bedroom you might need later, wider doorways, a kitchen that works for two cooks. Start by asking what your house needs to do in 10 years.

On our design/build projects, we walk the site together before anyone commits to a number: designer, builder, and every subcontractor, drawings in hand.

When the trades can see the real conditions, they can give you a real price instead of a padded guess. That means fewer surprises and fewer change orders once construction starts.

Planning a custom home or a major remodel? The first big decision isn't the kitchen layout or the siding. It's how you organize the whole project.

Our free guide, The Ultimate Guide to Design/Build in New England, walks you through how design/build compares to the traditional design-bid-build route, what really drives cost, how to avoid change-order surprises, and what to ask before you hire a team. There's a plain-language glossary at the end, too.
