This five bedroom brownstone underwent an extensive renovation to bring it up to today’s standards, including adding to the back of the house to accommodate a larger kitchen and dining area. The family who calls this place home requested a design that is layered, cheerful, warm, and collected. A healthy dose of pattern and rich colors were devised to evoke the English country style homes the couple had always admired. In the living room an antique Sultanabad rug introduces the blue, red, and green color story that weaves its way throughout the house. The newly updated kitchen was designed with a crisp black and white palette, inspired by hand painted ceramic tiles from Morocco.
