This 7,000 square foot renovation and addition maintains the graciousness and carefully-proportioned spaces of the historic 1907 home. The new construction includes a kitchen and family living area, a master bedroom suite, and a fourth floor dormer expansion. The subtle palette of materials, extensive built-in cabinetry, and careful integration of modern detailing and design, together create a fresh interpretation of the original design.

Sometimes new windows can have a historic feel. In this 1907 house, Schwartz and Architecture installed new windows in a fourth-floor dormer expansion yet retained the traditional aesthetic of the house.Tell us: Are you going to replace or restore your windows, and why?More:Energy-Efficient Windows: Understand the PartsEnergy-Efficient Windows: Decipher the RatingsUpdate Historic Windows for Charm and Efficiency

Place furniture so that it enhances the center line. The full effect of symmetry comes through when the furniture follows the architecture. Whether it's a bed, sofa, table or other piece, placing the furniture along the center line of the room creates a strong and established focal point.

This may not be the type of space I tend to feature, but there is something about the photo that is kinda eerie. I think the symmetry heightens that sensation, as does the soft lighting and the compression of the ceiling on the sides.

5. Use restraint in furnishing styles. Okay, so this room does go pretty far into the monastic realm, but by using such restraint in the bedding and side tables, see how amazing the ceiling and windows look!
