The project
Sometimes a project is small. The Hamilton East family-room renovation was a tight room with three doors and a window in the wrong place. We moved one door, replaced the window with a wider proportion, and built a floor-to-ceiling bookcase wall in white oak. Seven weeks. The owners told us it changed how they used the rest of the house.
01
White oak bookcase wall, hand-finished. Cabinetry built off-site, installed in a single day.
02
Window detail. New sash to match the existing original casement profile elsewhere in the house.
03
Reading corner detail. Linen upholstered chair, original leaded-glass lamp, the family's books.
