The house had great character and bags of potential, but the layout was confused. Previous renovations had left the space feeling fragmented and dark. We needed to undo the damage and give this large family some actual breathing room.
We found a stunning vaulted roof hiding above a false ceiling. The first job was to rip that down. By knocking out the partition walls, we turned a gloomy corridor into a light-filled space.
Nobody likes being stuck in the kitchen while everyone else is having fun. We built a banquette seat right into the island so the cook stays part of the conversation.
Every grown-up kitchen needs a party trick. This wet bar has bi-fold doors that slide away for evening drinks, then close up to hide the mess in time for Sunday brunch.
Proof that you don’t always need to extend. By simply understanding the architecture, we revealed the sociable heart of the home.
