When the owners wanted to build a new home for themselves and their three children - teenage twins and a 9-year-old - and their sizable collection of classic cars, choosing Darren O’Neil, founder and director of O’Neil Architecture, to turn their wish list into plans was a forgone conclusion. The couple and Darren shareda love of high-end cars and had met on many occasions.
