The front... More

When the clients saw the new exterior of their home for the first time, their response was exactly what we had hoped for: “It looks like it’s always been there.” As a century home that had been lovingly maintained by its previous owners, we wanted to approach the existing house with respect for its history and context.  For the clients and ourselves, it was critical to uphold its character, ensuring that the exterior would fit within the streetscape, and that its interior would maintain its charm.  At the same time, it was also critical that the space would feel decidedly contemporary, becoming a more appropriate expression of its new owners. The main living spaces of the original house were strictly subdivide... More
