When a couple sold the former home where they raised their children, they bought a new space with hopes of giving it a look and feel they could truly call their own. (And if they could show off a little when their adult children visited, well, that would be OK, too.)

The couple’s love of black and white helped us determine a unifying palette, which was essential considering the space’s large windows and open floorplan. Near the fireplace, our addition of swivel chairs allow for either a cozy setting or a way to join in the conversation with friends on the generous sectional.
