Chinoise botanical wallpaper and bamboo lights present a lively textural contrast within this 1753 home’s historic structure. The young family who lives here craved rich colors and vibrant patterns, influenced by their appreciation for Asian art and love of gardening. Sculptural lighting pieces brighten the previously-dark interiors with an interplay between contemporary and traditional aesthetics. Custom built-ins provide important function for the family while serving to divide large open spaces and offer degrees of privacy. A playful adult bar was created in the original dining room, featuring bold blue “Garden Pagoda” wallpaper, a custom cut Carrara marble bar top, and furnishings and accessories in contrasting and complimentary styles.

The new owners of this late 19th century home in a historic district commissioned Frazier Associates to help transform the house into a new living space that respected the historic character but allowed for modern amenities. Chief among those goals was creating a larger kitchen and more open living and dining areas, as well as designing new rear, side and upper porches that allowed access to the back yard and took advantage of the splendid views of downtown. Character defining features such as wood floors, diamond windows, and original doors, trim and moldings were retained and complemented with a sleek new kitchen, bathrooms and built-in cabinetry. The result is an open, bright interior with spaces that function and flow well together, and new porches that greatly expand the living spaces and integrate the house with the site and views.
