In place of the view-obscuring brick wall, Marsh-Vorspan installed Pella sliding glass doors that open toward the center. Measuring 16 feet across, the glass doors are eight feet tall. “In order to accommodate the eight-foot doors, we changed the slope of the living room ceiling, and raised it from eight feet to nine feet. That was quite a bit of engineering, but Marsh-Vorspan did a wonderful job with it.” Mimi believes Marsh-Vorspan is unusual among contractors, in that they have not only an expert knowledge of construction, but also a very refined design aesthetic. The partners of the firm each bring their talents: Chuck Vorspan has an M.A. in architecture from the University of Texas, while Doug Marsh was a master carpenter for over 20 years. In addition, both also enjoyed many years of success as general contractors before teaming up to form Marsh-Vorspan in 2000.
