Reclaiming the existing structure, the old roof framing was maintained to allow for the addition of a new clerestory window system.

Floating wall shelves in the home office!! Serves multi purpose.

Paint can make a big difference in highlighting collectibles and creating a focal point that has impact. Note how the architecturally interesting fireplace stands out. Photos by Take II, LLC.

Used client's existing rug to pull color from. Orange was the accent color of the entire house. Kept it modern with rustic pieces.

Stained knotty pine beaded wainscoting and stained wood chair rail and wood window sills.
We embraced the paneling, as we could not change it, and brought it to life by white washing the fireplace, installing an updated mantel and displayed all of the homeowners beloved collection of various art. The saw blades are hung with mirror clips and we now have a place for all of their painted rocks.

In the family room, the clients had already installed new built-in cabinetry, refaced the fireplace, purchased the major furnishings, and painted the walls an earthy red. To the existing seating, we added a second comfortable armchair in front of the fireplace to create a more convivial conversation grouping. We re-purposed their vintage sideboard as a console behind the sectional, where it conveniently stores dishes and barbecue tools for alfresco dining on the adjoining patio. Fabrics in a mix of patterns on the toss pillows and drapery are the finishing touch.
