This period home straddles two centuries and dual roles. As the home for the headmaster of an independent high school, it is also considered a school asset as a facility for visitors. Formal details define the public rooms that accommodate school functions. A ground-floor guest suite hosts campus visitors. The catering-quality kitchen, like a hinge, connects the intimate living quarters to formal spaces. The heart of their family sanctuary is the great room just beyond the kitchen. The headmaster holds occasional student classes in his living room, connecting students to this campus legacy. He and his wife can see the front door of the main building from his upstairs window. Boundaries between public and private life are sensitively articulated throughout.

UserPatterns and textures from floor to ceiling add beauty and interest to this lovely great room. Sit back and relax on the ivory sectional that sits atop layered area rugs. A large, square, wooden table sits between the sofa and padded ottomans. A dark wood credenza adds functionality and style. A full wall of slide away glass doors is framed by patterned, pleated drapes and textured window shades. Open to the kitchen, this great room is a host or hostesses dream. Clay Bowman

DESIGNER DEBORAH LUTZDining host chairs are used as client seating in this elegant home office. Host chairs are generally lighter weight and easier to move, so make great occasional and office seating. Deisigner Deborah Lutz
Vesta Look StudioThis combined living and dining room was thoughtfully redesigned to maximize both functionality and comfort within a compact space. The goal was to create a layout that feels open, intentional, and welcoming while supporting everyday living and occasional entertaining.
Inspired by a mid-century modern aesthetic, the design incorporates clean lines, warm wood tones, and a balanced palette of navy and soft neutrals. Strategic space planning was key defining separate zones for lounging and dining without overwhelming the room.
A carefully curated furniture layout enhances flow, improves usability, and creates a natural gathering point for both relaxation and hosting. The result is a cohesive, modern space that feels elevated yet livable, where every detail contributes to a calm and inviting atmosphere.
