We worked with Hamady Architects on the gut renovation of this 1920s Georgian-style house for a young family with three small children and three dogs. The decor, reflecting the wife’s passion for art and antiques, strives for elegance without pretension or fussiness—a pared-down version of the stately yet stylish interiors conjured by the great decorators of yesteryear. Throughout the home, floors of beautiful reclaimed oak set the stage for restrained compositions of fine furnishings of wide-ranging period and nationality. By complementing and gently contradicting the language of the architecture, the design embraces the past while keeping one foot firmly planted in the present.
Classically beautiful with elements of sophistication and a fabulously random assortment of eras. Another dreamy project by Billy Cotton. Photos: Stephen Kent Johnson.
