exterior patio into the house.”
Other challenges included the finishing and
installation of the custom dining island top by
SJ Carpentry. “The top, which was made out
of salvaged beams that had been sitting out-
side for months, was a real challenge to finish
perfectly but I think the end result is exactly
what we wanted,” said Grayston. The designer
also wanted to mention the great work done
by Souza’s Carpets and Flooring: “The laying
of the new wood floors was a real challenge
and they did a fabulous job of the preparation
“We had a very clear vision to create a
contemporary home whilst still embracing
the historic feel of the building—I’d like to
think we achieved this,” said the owners, who
are thrilled with the outcome. “c Tx completely
understood the brief, resulting in both a suc-
cessful and enjoyable collaboration. Thanks
go out to the entire team—especially Lauren
and Jacob!”
