For Johnson, bringing the couple’s ideas to life was one
of his favorite parts of the project. “I enjoyed hearing about her vision and trying to pull it all together,” he explained. “She knew what she wanted to do from the start. To take those ideas and see them go from a binder into their dream home was the best aspect of the job for me.”
Te home itself is a mix of modern and beachy, sparse and cozy – a dichotomy that is a direct reflection of the homeowners. “My wife and I are very different,” observed Eli, and
Ann-Terese added, “I’m into the arts and the simplicity. You know, aesthetics.” For Eli, having a home that would always “have the feeling of a Jewish home, very open and very friendly” took precedence. But the couple came together in at least one major respect. “We didn’t want it to be ostentatious,” said Eli. “We wanted something Sullivan’s Island beachy and comfort- able, yet timeless.” Te Hymans also wanted to build the home with the future in mind.

put into areas you don’t even see. It’s in the insulation, the doors, the windows and the foundation,” Ann- Terese elaborated. Although Eli was hesitant to attach happiness to a ma- terial thing, he admitted his fondness for the new house. “Life is short and it’s about people and relationships, but this home really does bring me happiness and joy,” he confessed. “I see it as a gathering place for our kids and grandkids, a place where people can be comfortable.” Peering around the home, I imagined what the family’s
