Renovations to this historic 1830’s Connecticut farmhouse started with the directive, “I don’t want to lose any of the character and history of the place.” From what had become a dark maze of interior rooms over nearly two centuries, we created a plan for a modern family. We recast the details of the original house in a completely new layout: original baseboards, doors, trims, and flooring complement a modern design with interiors by Fawn Galli that opens views from spacious rooms to the beautiful surrounding mountains.
Douglas C. Wright Architects did right by this beautiful old home, and I love that the new addition is black and seems to fade into the background. Photos: Costa Picadas.
