Monroe Street House, a fully renovated 1899 brick rowhouse, combines historic charm with modern, sunlit interiors for a multi-generational family. TBo‘s design retains the Federal-style character while adding a spacious concrete-framed extension, featuring raw, natural materials that will develop a beautiful patina over time. Inside, airy rooms with lime-plastered walls contrast the exposed brick and Douglas fir ceiling beams lend warmth and texture. The ground floor studio opens into a polished concrete space, blending smoothly into the garden. Each floor emphasizes openness, with large windows and doors inviting light, creating a serene, flexible living space that seamlessly blends old and new.
