A vibrant revival of historic architecture through a modern, eclectic lens. In this 1890s historic home renovation, the mix of Grecian motifs and peacock-inspired hues brings personality and poise to this storied home, while layered textures — crystal chandeliers, custom upholstery, and bold artwork — balance heritage with fresh, contemporary energy.
The Great Room features rich teal sofas, animal-print seating and whimsical accents, while the Formal Living Room showcases a pair of statement modern wingback chairs and a playful tete-a-tete framed by ten-foot windows dressed in fuchsia silk taffeta. A full kitchen transformation more than doubled its footprint, introducing soft blue cabinetry, brass details, and a luminous mother-of-pearl backsplash which reinterprets tradition with an elegant twist, creating a space that feels as timeless as it is full of life.
