A pop of colour and fresh, youthful accents transform this historic house into a modern, approachable living space.

Taking a Playful Approach

An ongoing black-and-white theme is a crisp backdrop for the mix of bold patterns and colours used in high-impact spots like the living room's round ottoman. Classic furniture keeps the decorating style grounded.

Opening Up

Replacing oak cabinets with simple shelving opened up the previously crowded kitchen in the small home. Opting for white walls and no window covering gives the illusion of more space in the room.

Pops of ColoUr

Juicy colours taken from the living room's ottoman fabric are sprinkled throughout the room and balance the black and white theme.

Layers of Texture

A mix of fabrics, textures, and colours liven up the historic feel of the rowhouse's clean lines and architectural elements. Fun pillows and throws bring a fresh look to the more traditional elements in the home.

Warm & Cozy Fireplace

Removing layers of plaster in the living room revealed a beautiful brick fireplace that's showcased by built-in shelves.

Repurposed Vanity

A bamboo-style chair in fearless red and a graphic black and white lamp modernises its curvy lines and ornate hardware.
