Keep your eyes out for the latest issues of Portrait Magazine (Seattle and Portland editions) — where you'll find our project, the Mount Baker Historic Craftsman featured. "When Paul and Leslie Santarelli were looking for a home in Seattle in 2018, they were seeing too many houses that were just a little too new. “It was a lot of modern farmhouses,” recalls Paul. “There was nothing very old.” Then the couple walked into a 1912 Craftsman in the Mt. Baker neighborhood. They were amazed by the home’s historic detail, from the coffered ceiling and decorative stair railing, to the original tile around the fireplace and stained-glass windows glinting in several rooms. “This was a house that I’ve always dreamed about living in,” says Leslie. “It had so much beautiful character and potential.” After living there for a few years, they realized the few pain points: mainly, that there was only one bathroom for the three upstairs bedrooms, which wouldn’t work for the family of five, and the kitchen was worn and tired after an 80s remodel, resulting in a stylistic mismatch. For a remodel, Paul and Leslie sought out a team to design and build the project who was equally excited and passionate about historic houses. “For us, it was really about finding a team that had the same appreciation for the historic parts of the home that still existed,” says Paul. They found it in interior designer Hyrel Mathias, of Board & Vellum and later Hyrel Mathias Interior Design, Lance Hayes, architect at Board & Vellum, and contractor Brad Wageman of Ambrose Construction. Wageman, who began his construction career in fine carpentry before starting a firm that remodels all types of homes, has a particular satisfaction for working with century-old houses like this one. A remodel is a chance to “pluck these aberrations out of the home and make it whole again,” says Wageman." Read on, and explore the beautiful images from Miranda Estes, at: https://lnkd.in/gTHTvnYY

Did you know that ceilings come in various types, and each plays a vital role in dressing up a space or adding more style? The ceiling style and finish should match the room’s architectural design for a cohesive and harmonious look. While the conventional ceiling is the most commonly used ceiling finish, house designs and styles can make other options attractive alternatives; however, what many homeowners overlook is the fifth wall: the ceiling. It presents a vast and untapped canvas for creative expression within living spaces. A well-designed ceiling can elevate the entire aesthetic of a room by adding depth, character, and a touch of sophistication. Let’s compare two beautiful ceiling designs – Coffer ceilings and Vault ceilings – and determine which one would be a great addition to your interior home style. We will explore their similarities and differences, the advantages of both, and if a vaulted or coffered ceiling is right for you. Click the link below! https://lnkd.in/eCVkGz8s
