The assignment: Update this homeowner’s childhood home into a functional, accessible space while highlighting the original character of the 70-year-old architecture. A kitchen remodel paired with an extensive addition including a lounge area, mudroom, study, primary suite, and laundry room added much-needed space to the first floor, while a refresh of the furnishing and decor throughout ensured the home felt both cohesive and comfortable in its entirety. // Photographer: Ryan McDonald
