A three-story renovation of a Second Empire landmark, blending luxury with simplicity, featuring a new kitchen, interior upgrades, and a botanical-inspired decor that honors the client's passion for gardening while revitalizing the historic exterior.
Luxury blends with economy of form to respectfully usher a historic landmark into the 21st century. A three-story renovation, complete with new kitchen and interior architectural upgrades throughout, breathes new life into this fine example of Second Empire residential architecture. Pure form and clean lines are common ingredients in the furnishings mix, curated from different eras. Still life paintings in the Dutch Masters tradition embody a monastic, yet modern quality.
A spare sophistication is realized with a neutral palette. This study in simplicity also celebrates the client's love of gardening with large scale botanical prints in the dining room and master bedroom. Outside, a new color palette revives this historic home and complements beautiful grounds.
