New Home with Historic Sensibilities

Client remarks

“Richard, Nick and everyone on the team listened to our ideas and helped us brainstorm about switching things around. For example, we have a small study where we redesigned the doorway to let more light into the front hall. We also removed a closet in the hallway, thus enlarging the room to accommodate a piano.“

- Christine Siegrist, Concord

The design challenge

Replace a 1950’s 3-Bedroom Ranch with an Energy Star 2 rated 10-room Colonial Revival with four bedrooms, three full bathrooms, one half bath, and laundry.
