 This project has it all. A dynamic, wellrounded family blending generations, personalities, historic and modern styles in one. How perfect to complement an antique cape-style house with a transitional addition.  With a nod to the original “Red House” the modern front door opens into the “connector space” which looks out to a courtyard, and houses the open stair.  The earlier addition that was removed had hidden the original front door so to bring back some importance to that space, a bar, complete with a glass chiller, custom tiles and spirited wallpaper was built for a mixologist who specializes in martinis.  This house has calm, cozy, vibrant, entertaining, colorful and neurtral zones. It truly fits every mood and personality.
