A ubiquitous spec home on the edge of a Chesapeake neighborhood has been transformed into a harmonious composition with a strong connection to its surroundings. Previously partitioned spaces were opened up to enhance light, flow, and a hierarchy of scale.
The use of genuine reclaimed materials, such as timber columns salvaged from the old Norfolk Boat House, adds character and authenticity. Thoughtful detailing—including custom-fabricated screen walls, hardware, and furniture—elevates the home into a carefully curated composition of parts.
The design also incorporates niches for art display and a barrel-vaulted ceiling in the music room, further enhancing the home’s unique character.
