SCOPE: Full Interior Renovation + Furniture

CONTRACTOR: Green Gables

When a longtime client uncovered a 1935 Tudor in the SW Hills with charming bones and decades of disjointed renovations, we saw an opportunity to restore what time had muddled. We honored the home's architectural character with rich textures, warm wood tones, and traditional detailing, while weaving in contemporary finishes that feel like they've always belonged. The result is a sophisticated, livable space where old-world charm and modern life coexist without apology.
