A substantial renovation transforms this historic carriage house into a highly personal retreat for a talented fabric designer with a love of eclectic design and bold, saturated color. The home honors the character and history of the original structure while introducing expressive, contemporary elements that reflect the owner’s creative sensibility.
The interiors are organized around a gradual shift in mood and color. The entry level is the darkest and most saturated, creating a dramatic first impression through rich hues, expressive wallpaper, and eccentric light fixtures. As the home moves upward, the palette becomes progressively lighter, softer, and less saturated, creating increasingly restful spaces on the upper floors.
Historic details are preserved and thoughtfully contrasted with modern interventions, resulting in a layered home that feels collected, unexpected, and deeply personal—equally suited for quiet retreat and gathering with family.
