Working in historic districts requires a light hand. But, letting go of ego and trying to achieve something that sits lightly on a site is no easy task.
This rear addition in the Capitol Hill Historic District will face a street and be fully visible to passersby. It does not try to imitate the past, it is bot a caricature of its surroundings. It is simply sober, discrete, unpretentious.

Progress at our Beech Hill House is ongoing. Here’s a walkthrough of the main spaces on the 1st floor as they look today. This home is about the flow of spaces, views, natural light, special moments framing nature.

How do you create an open plan that still feels welcoming and has spatial definition? We use various mechanisms for getting there: thoughtful planning, stairs as screening elements, varying ceiling heights, ceiling accents, lighting design, accent walls, and of course, the placement of furniture and accents.
