Example of a minimalist exterior home design in Charlotte

MINT CONDITION Fresh, relaxed and full of vintage soul. DESIGN DESCRIPTION This home feels light, easy and personal, pairing soft sage tones with treasured vintage finds. A mint and cream sectional with a deep chaise invites lounging in front of a painted grey brick fireplace, accented by a crisp geometric canvas. Live-edge wood tables on hairpin legs, a fringed macramé pouf and bentwood cane chairs add warmth and texture over a chevron rug. A vintage upright piano, topped with a classic record player, brings nostalgic charm, while a sunny bay window filled with greenery brightens the space. A wood desk with a card-catalogue organizer creates a charming work nook. The result is a home that feels effortless, inviting and full of character.

A photo highlighting the technique of color glazing aged wood paneling, beams and trim work. Instead of sanding and stripping the existing finish, the wood is cleaned, conditioned, color stained and sealed with poly to give a luxurious and refreshed look. The finish sits on top of the surface vs. penetrating into the pores of the wood.

Summary of Scope: gut renovation/reconfiguration of kitchen, coffee bar, mudroom, powder room, 2 kids baths, guest bath, master bath and dressing room, kids study and playroom, study/office, laundry room, restoration of windows, adding wallpapers and window treatments Background/description: The house was built in 1908, my clients are only the 3rd owners of the house. The prior owner lived there from 1940s until she died at age of 98! The old home had loads of character and charm but was in pretty bad condition and desperately needed updates. The clients purchased the home a few years ago and did some work before they moved in (roof, HVAC, electrical) but decided to live in the house for a 6 months or so before embarking on the next renovation phase. I had worked with the clients previously on the wife's office space and a few projects in a previous home including the nursery design for their first child so they reached out when they were ready to start thinking about the interior renovations. The goal was to respect and enhance the historic architecture of the home but make the spaces more functional for this couple with two small kids. Clients were open to color and some more bold/unexpected design choices. The design style is updated traditional with some eclectic elements. An early design decision was to incorporate a dark colored french range which would be the focal point of the kitchen and to do dark high gloss lacquered cabinets in the adjacent coffee bar, and we ultimately went with dark green.
