BROUGHT TO LIGHT
To attain the lighter, more open feeling that the homeowner’s wanted, we decided to raise the ceiling in the entry only, for budget reasons, and a handful of other simple changes added light wherever possible. A textured mosaic accent wall and shelf adds sophisticated detail while a simple punch-out of the left foyer wall provides a peek into the rest of the home. Custom coordinating cabinetry nearby creates convenient storage for winter coats, toys, sports equipment, and other items often dumped at the front door. Photography by Anice Hoachlander.
