or those visiting for the
first time, welcome to Stonemice. Sharing a passion for design and building by hand. Growing up around a community that shared creative independent thought, nearly everyone I met was either building, planning, or designing, houses with one thing in common. Handmade. I love seeing the revival of hand building. Enjoyed by our ancestors, these techniques have been perfected for centuries around globe. 2022 updates coming soon ! Currently, resting from building with our latest project in Bellaire finished. A favorite project: 1920's mining house which featured restored Italian stuccos, and American Clay in Calumet, Michigan. One creation that remains as mysterious and functionable as ever, is the native american indian tepee which I lived built and lived for over ten years.
