After living in their home in Maryland since the 90s, this empty nester couple wanted to update and modernize their home. The memo: We like purple, red, and pinks.
In the Dining Room, we continued the wainscoting from the Foyer. Adding a dramatic wallpaper to the walls, we drew all of the colors for the space while still creating a formal vibe.
In the Foyer, the floors and the stair were a bit dated. There were architectural details that did not carry over into this space, although the style asked for a half-height wainscoting so break up the walls a bit. We changed the stair railing and ballusters to iron with a motif for an upgrade.
In the Living Room, we replaced the dated millwork with a new custom set. We removed the columns throughout the room, reselected all lighting, and made the furniture a little more spread out and conversational.
