This newly built residence takes the 1920s and ’30s homes of its neighborhood as its inspiration. It celebrates their nostalgic charm and character even as it contains a series of spaces that feel contemporary both in their scale and the way they encourage twenty-first-century living. Although the house sits on a large parcel of land, and the homeowners required extensive square footage to accommodate their program, the home was designed with an intimate sense of scale and a style that feels true to the early twentieth century. The goal was to channel what an architect of that time would have done.
