This project, completed in several phases, reflects the fun personality of the owner. Initial work included minimal shelving, a minor kitchen rehab, a hardwood floor and museum white paint. Subsequent work included a new master bath, office and living room decor. Living room walls were painted a deep warm gray to eliminate reflections which preclude night views. A light lilac colored ceiling extends into a continuous reveal installed in lieu of the original crown molding. An unexpected benefit occurs when sunlight grazes the ceiling and is reflected in the reveal as thought it was somehow illuminated from within. |

Plan |
||||||||||||||
Typical window sills in this building are almost 4' high so the colorful office was raised to afford wonderful view to the east while working at the desk. A window at the end of the office provides a view through the master bedroom to the Downtown skyline. A custom raised bed in the master bedroom enjoys the same view. |
