Thoughtfully designing a better world. Together.

POSTS STORIES REELS TAGGED

Some projects start with a dream. This one started with a fire.

An appliance fire damaged our clients’ pool house, and they decided it was finally time to build the one they’d been picturing for years: a small kitchen, a bath, a guest suite that doubles as an office, and a main living area that opens onto the pool and hardscape they already loved.

They came with architectural plans in hand, but a beautiful design still has to become a building. That’s where design-build makes the difference. Design, permitting, surveying, building, and closeout all run through one team that speaks the language of the architect, the homeowner, and the crew in the field.

The pool house sat on an island behind the home with no good way in, and strict impervious surface limits meant we had to remove some before building. We spotted both hurdles in the first hour, then worked through them with the architect so the design stayed intact. We also helped the homeowners and their insurance adjuster get on the same page about today’s building costs, so the family got a fair settlement.

On site, project manager Alan Powell carried that same care into every day. Good news or a snag, Alan was the first to share it, always with a plan. When the drawings came off the page and he saw a way to make the space even better, he brought everyone together to talk it through. That’s where a custom home earns its name: thoughtful details, intentional finishes, and craftsmanship that holds up to a close look.

Our clients lead full, busy lives. They didn’t need another project to manage. They needed a team they could trust to handle the hard parts, keep them informed, and only bring decisions to their table when it mattered.

What’s left is a pool house that feels like it was always meant to be there, built for slow summer afternoons, overnight guests, and good company.

At Sigmon, great construction starts with great communication, and great communication builds trust. Trust is everything.

From empty rooms to this.

These are the first rough space plans for Pizzeria di Territorio at 301 W. Cabarrus St., from our architects at @maurerarchitecture, with @mdb__inc bringing it to life.

Picture these same rooms layered the way we intend to open them, with dark woodwork, concrete floors, leather seating, warm lighting, and a full dining room in motion. That is the Territorio we are building toward.

More to come as construction gets underway. Opening early 2027 in the Warehouse District.

#RaleighNC #DowntownRaleigh #RaleighEats #WarehouseDistrict #PizzeriaDiTerritorio Empty restaurant space before construction, with a polished concrete floor, black ceiling, fluorescent lights, and a wall of tall windows looking out onto West Cabarrus Street in Raleigh, with cars, a large oak tree, and traffic lights across the street.

Built for hospitality. Built for gathering.

We’re excited to share a closer look at Fullsteam ATC, an 11,600 SF transformation at American Tobacco Campus in Downtown Durham—bringing new life to an existing space and creating a home for brewing, dining, events, and gathering.

Working alongside Sundholm Studio, Maurer Architecture and United Restaurant Equipment, Gateway helped bring Fullsteam’s vision to life through detailed coordination of the architectural design, brewery and food service equipment, utilities, and MEP systems. From installation requirements to sequencing, every piece had to come together to support both day-to-day operations and the guest experience.

Fullsteam calls its new home “Durham’s Front Porch,” and the finished space lives up to that: a Public House and gathering place rooted in the Bull City, local food and drink, and bringing people together.

Whether you’re stopping in for a locally brewed pint, grabbing a bite, catching an event, or settling in with friends and family, go experience Fullsteam ATC for yourself!

Good people. Great projects. Great places to gather.

Coming Soon: Little Bird in Downtown Wilmington

Chef Dean Neff and Lydia Clopton, owners of Seabird and Zora’s Market & Kitchen, are expanding their downtown footprint with Little Bird, a new restaurant and bar coming to 9 S. Front St., next door to Seabird.

Expected to open in early 2027, Little Bird will build on the team’s focus on sustainable seafood while bringing a new dining experience, daytime offerings, and additional space for private events to downtown.

The project will also breathe new life into the historic building at 9 S. Front St., restoring its long-hidden façade and creating additional dining and event space. Together, Seabird and Little Bird will offer expanded opportunities for private gatherings and special events.

We’re excited to see another historic downtown space brought back to life, thanks to the team at @maurerarchitecture and @oldschoolrebuilders

We look forward to welcoming Little Bird to the downtown community! For the full story, check out the article link in our bio from our local business journal!

📍 9 S. Front St., Wilmington, NC
🗓️ Expected Opening: Early 2027
