This gorgeous house, added onto and adapted since the 1600’s, is the site of a renovation which connects inside and outside in a way that makes the most of the views and landscape, while creating cozy and sunny space to create and entertain.

This design transformed a typical arrangement of two bedrooms with a bath between into a stunning master suite with two full baths with entirely different but complementary characters, a common dressing area, and a bedroom that feels much removed from the activity of the household.

This house for a family with four kids needed a mudroom which would be practical, but also provide a sense of celebration of entry. The front door, though beautiful, is rarely used, and we wanted to capture some of its flavor in the door the family uses every day. The mudroom provides a coat closet, cubbies and a bench for putting on and taking off shoes and boots. It is also a lovely transitional space between inside and outside with a lancet window which frames a view of a tree.
A built-in dining nook with a corner curio cabinet was installed in the kitchen.
We also designed custom desks for the children, incorporating storage and practical work space for young scholars!
