A 1950’s split level located in a suburban neighborhood outside of Washington, DC underwent a whole house renovation.  Lucky for us, the project expanded beyond the home and we were tasked to reinterpret the entire property into a french country residence.

"Design is not just what it looks and feels like. Design is how it works." - Steve Jobs

In this recently completed seventies home remodel we added windows to the once dark entry facade and expanses of glass in the major living spaces. The uses of warm woods, added light and varying panel patterns creates modern warmth in this home.

Our most popular pin of 2016: The 2nd floor landing linen closets in our American Colonial restoration. The stairs, and therefore builtins, were added to the exterior shell as part of the renovation because the original staircase was too narrow to accommodate modern day furniture. http://www.donaldlococoarchitects.com/classic/early-american-colonial-home
