Traditional Home with Classic Design Ideas

Posted by admin on Dec 19, 2019

Hello, my friends. How are you doing? I honestly cant believe Christmas is a week away from today! Oh, wow I can feel butterflies when I think about it and yes, I am allowing myself to be like a child at this special moment of the year. I think that only children can feel the magic of Christmas and I am hoping to have some of that I hope you allow yourself to have a truly peaceful and happy time with your loved ones, from start to finish.

I could talk about Christmas for a long time, but that might tire you and I am guessing youre here to see some inspiring interiors, right? If not, leave a comment about your favorite Christmas traditions at the end of the post. I will love to know them! Meanwhile, I am really excited to share this gorgeous historic home renovation by Edward Deegan Architects and Interiors (previously featured here, here , here & here find a comfy spot and make sure to see these house tours!).

If you think that classic and traditional interior design are boring, this home will change your mind! Sure, you will find some extraordinary architectural details that youre only able to find in historic homes, but the design here really brings this entire home to the next level. Forget everything you have seen when it comes to renovations. This team knows how to keep things fresh and current without compromising on quality.

Traditional Home with Classic Design Ideas

Designing a spacious and practical kitchen in a historic home is always more complicated than anyone can anticipate, but the designers did an excellent job with this space. The entire room was completely reconfigurated and it now hosts a large kitchen with two islands, a Breakfast Nook and a large Family Room.

Grilles

This kitchen island features Butcher countertop and a panel-ready beverage center. Custom cabinet doors with metal diamond-shaped grilles and wire mesh add a timeless appeal to the island.

Kitchen Island Paint Color

The designer added the diamond detail on the island to match the windows in this historic home renovation. Kitchen island paint color is Farrow and Ball Hague Blue No. 30. This is a great, vivid, navy blue!
