English Tudor House

This suburban English Tudor, circa 1920, needed substantial renovation to meet the family's needs and to do so using existing materials so any completed work looks as if it has always been there. Existing brick, slate and stonework were matched to accomplish this goal, allowing form and function to evolve within the context of its architectural style.

The new floor plan opens up and enlarges many spaces creating a more graceful flow throughout. Custom wrought-iron, limestone, rift white oak and satin nickel finishes complete the interior's blend of contemporary flair and traditional line. The computerized lighting system allows flexibility for the client's art collection and the potential of reprogramming, should light path and light scene requirements change.
