This absolutely stunning 1861 Italianate brownstone in the historic Fort Greene neighbourhood of Brooklyn was renovated and modernized by Bangia Agostinho and Adrienne Totoro. The home’s history was honoured in this transformation whilst adapting it for modern living for a young family. New layouts, a rebuild of the rear extension, large-scale windows created a lighter, more spacious flow. Muted woods, natural materials and neutrals make this home soooo calming and grounded.

At only 1500 sq ft, this 1960s ranch house in on the North Fork of Long Island seems much larger with it’s white painted walls and ceilings (vaulter ceilings sure help), the addition of a screened porch that feels like an extension of the living room and a new window in the kitchen. Some casual furnishings (in a high-low mix) in shades of white, dark and wood make this weekend retreat an absolute delight for designer and homeowner Dan Mazzarini of BHDM. Photos: Reid Rolls.

“This TriBeCa, New York, gut renovation project—connecting two full-floor lofts—included piercing the floor of the upper unit and adding a grand plaster clad staircase. David and the team celebrated the history of the c. 1900 warehouse building by retaining the loft-like elements while enhancing them with modern interventions and a warm, comfortable aesthetic.”
