Ta Daaa! Colorful in Cobble Hill

We have a new project up on the site, full of color and pattern. This already-renovated brick town home didn’t need a major overhaul, but the new owners did need some clever storage, cheerful patterns, and a brighter palette.

Check out the photos, and ponder: would you rather have that amazing Josef Frank wallpaper in the entry, or the whimsical balloon wallpaper on the nursery ceiling?

Both? Yeah, us too.

Ever wonder what it looks like behind the mantle?

Ghost chimney!
