Designed to appear as if it were built at the turn of the last century, the house is set harmoniously into its eclectic, hilly neighborhood. Formal spaces at the front of the house, characterized by a decorative facade, and a casual area at the rear of the house, rendered in Craftsman style, provide dual areas suitable for formal entertaining and everyday family life.

Spaces were developed to highlight the client's collection of antiques, art, and vintage lighting, and new components were handcrafted to achieve an integrated whole. Salvaged architectural artifacts were also selected for inclusion where appropriate to the style and scale of the spaces.
