We’re proud to share our design work for —a fresh and elevated dining experience right at the entrance to Block Island. We joined the project after a few early selections were made and developed the design into its final concept, helping to shape its overall vibe....”Living the Yacht Life”.

With its refined seaside aesthetic, One BI strikes a balance between island ease and coastal elegance. From material palettes to layout and lighting, every detail was chosen to create a space that feels both elevated and deeply grounded in the charm of New England.

Congratulations to the entire team for raising the bar on what dining can look like here.

Newest project opened! Espresso by Strive. Our second project with the Strive team, and we couldn’t be happier with how they executed our design. Thrilled to have a coffee place right near our office. Check it out next time you’re looking for a good cup of coffee in a modern yet cozy atmosphere.

Heading to Block Island again….love taking the ferry trip over. JCG design team’s 5th island project. Thank our lucky stars to be working in such a beautiful place.

If you’re not sure if it’s time for a renovation…..this is a good sign…..

“Extraordinary by Design”. We couldn’t have said it better…. it’s what we want for all our projects.

“Strive curates professional yet casual vibes in design and menu”.

Thank you for spreading the word!

2 great quotes:
“DETAILS ARE UNIVERSE”
“To be great you can’t be NORMAL ASSHOLE….you have to be SPECIALIZED ASSHOL!…..ASSHOLE WITH STYLE….understand”

As the famous Mr. Chow would say….details are the universe! Great design, great detailing, great millworker, great clients…..that’s how sprinkler heads get seamlessly coordinated into the details of a 34 foot long custom wooden grill.

Some Horizontal Shots of Strive. We especially love this first shot, because it looks just like the rendering we designed. It’s so rewarding when a client is the on the same page about executing the vision. Throughout the design process it’s easy to change or delete things when complications arise, but Joe always kept the original vision in mind, and didn’t stop until he achieved it! We couldn’t be happier with the results!

Our latest project is opening!!! We loved working with to bring to life!!!!!

Our client had a clear vision from the beginning. A place that felt classically Boston, but approachable to everyone for a casual drink or dinner. For the downstairs “speakeasy” our only direction was “jungle”. And we couldn’t be happier with the creative liberty we had.

If you stop by Strive, check out the bathrooms and see how we incorporated the jungle theme into the main restaurant as well.

Nothing better than a happy client!

Our latest project is up on the website. [and of course here on social media!]

We loved working with Dave Amato to bring his latest concept to life. His grandfather “Skookie” was the inspiration for Brickmen Kitchen + Bar. Skookie worked at a brickyard in Kingston which was one of many yards throughout the Hudson Valley in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Seeing the molds as an art form themselves, we knew we had to incorporate them into the project. [as seen in the second and third picture].
