Every room was thoughtfully designed to have a layered, heritaged character, as though this new home had been in the family for a century, added on to and enriched by many generations. The resulting design combines several of the best of both worlds - the charm of a legacy home (where everything works), the heritage of the east (with the climate of the west), the layered look of the inherited (designed for modern functionality).
