Design focused on art 

 

A stately home built in 1987 was in need of an update. The foyer, although two stories in height, was dimly lit and unimpressive. The adjacent study with tall windows covered with brown plantation shutters was dark and dated. One of the first design suggestions to which the homeowners readily agreed was to widen the living room entrance to bring in light and create a view from the foyer. Traditional arched built-ins were replaced with custom shelving backed with mirrors to house collections of glassware and sculpture. Displays of antique lithographs, wood cuts and engravings were placed artfully throughout. 

The Kitchen, remodeled for ease of use, has a contemporary feel.

In the Master Bath, the dated whirlpool tub was removed. The once vaulted ceiling  lowered to 10 feet not only gives the bath an updated look but conserves energy as well.The homeowners opted for clean line cabinetry with storage hidden behind a bank of mirrors.
