This house is an example of the ‘farmhouse Victorian’ style. Like all of our projects in Meadowvale Village, the design process was subject to the review and approval of both the local Village Heritage Committee and the City’s Heritage Advisory Committee. Chris has worked closely with both bodies over the years and has developed a deep understanding of the special character of this very special place.

This is an organic Lime Wash done with a true lime wash product as opposed to a brick mortar or concrete that is often seen on new houses. This product can be applied as a solid coating making the surface completely white, or can be applied and "washed off" in many artistic ways, as seen here. If you hate your brick or just want something unique this is a great option! Photo credit: Jeff Murrey

Our client acquired this historic home full of charm and details, but the architecture was hidden by an overgrown landscape that had a variety of styles, lacking cohesion. Our team worked with the client, the village, and the historical review committee to develop a new landscape design that highlighted the unique architectural features of the home. The design intent was to create a new landscape that looked as though it had always been there. We reduced an oversized circle driveway, added clay brick paver walkways, and built a new terrace with balustrades in front of the home to evoke the original architectural drawings from the home’s design from the 1920s. The design also re-connected the face of the home to the public walkway, creating a more welcoming entry that had been abandoned sometime in the 1950s. Layers of color, textures, and seasonal interest create a foundation of plantings to anchor the home’s stately appearance.

Longview Farm Park is the remnant of a farm that may have been settled as early as the 1820s. The farm was divided several times and the house modified over the years. The city acquired the 30 acre property for use as a park in 2000. The park contains horse stables, tennis courts, picnic and playgrounds, a nature preserve, walking trails and a small fishing pond. It also retains the historic farm house whose structure contains a log cabin believed to be one of the oldest houses in the county. Powers Bowersox Associates, Inc. was retained to work with a committee represented by staff, elected officials, and citizens to renovate the house, and to design a new “community living room” connected to the historic farm house. The addition is a long low pavilion type structure that quietly compliments the historic house. It provides a multipurpose community room, catering kitchen, office space for the city’s parks and recreation department, a volunteer gardening club and other local not-for-profit groups, and maintenance storage. It is designed to permit the house and the addition to function separately, or combined as a single venue for community events. Award for Distinction, St. Louis AIA, 2009
