Working with the homeowners was great fun. Research went into all aspects, especially with attention to historic masonry techniques, and no detail was left to chance. Breaking from traditional colonial home plans, the more open design of the first floor addresses the client’s goal of having ample gathering space for their children and grandchildren when they vacation each summer and during holidays.
