Holley Carpenter
Owner/Architectural Designer
As the President and Design-Illustrator, I have had the pleasure of working with builders and custom clients. I take it upon myself to build a personal relationship with every client to understand their needs and desired outcomes.
I received my Associate’s degree in Interior and Architectural Design at Cazenovia College in New York and continued my education by achieving a Bachelor’s degree from Buffalo State in 1993. In 1994 I relocated to North Carolina, and my family has called it home ever since. We still remain in Clayton, along with Cider House Studio, Inc, where we enjoy the small-town feel that is just minutes outside from Raleigh.
Isabella (Izzy) Enxuto
Architectural Designer
I attended West Johnston High School where I realized my interest in architectural drafting. I started working at a local engineering firm after graduating high school and have been in the industry since. After initially studying at NCSU for civil engineering, I realized I enjoyed the design process much more. In 2019 I graduated from Wake Technical Community College with an Associate’s degree in Architectural Technologies.
My family moved to Angier from Connecticut in 2009, and we have been in North Carolina since. My husband and I (and our four cats) have called Clayton home since buying our first house here in 2020.
