The challenge with this remodel was to achieve the eclectic vision of the homeowner for a house with elements of French Rococo, Moorish Revival, and Art Deco styles. The starting point was a house with classical bones.
The house features a mix of rustic and fine finishes: distressed truck decking flooring and a tin ceiling in the bar, a fireplace of rusticated black granite paired with reclaimed Douglas fir, gold-leaf ceilings, and Venetian plaster walls.
A lot of craftsmanship went into details like the gold-leaf ceilings, which required craftspeople to work from scaffolding for almost a month. Our masonry subcontractor climbed into the fireplace structure to install steel beams to support the weight of the granite fireplace surround.
PRESS:
The owner was living on the site during construction, so we had to be precise in orchestrating subcontractors and sequencing the work.
