Brooklyn Backyard

This 1970s southern-traditional residence was transformed inside and out to reflect a new chapter. While the original layout was preserved, every surface, finish, and material was reconsidered to express the modern sensibility its new owners had come to appreciate from living in Brooklyn.

The home's exterior & interior embraces contrast, with a tonal palette that evokes understated sophistication. Layered textures and bold finishes invite touch and create a sense of depth, reflecting the clients’ desire for spaces that feel both new and lived-in.

Family-centered gathering spaces are punctuated with Parisian vintage dining chairs, a gold tile backsplash in the bar, an Eames lounge chair, and a curated collection of abstract artwork, including large-scale pieces by Mikhail Chemiakin.

White oak flooring transitions to alternating marble tile beneath a glass-enclosed floating staircase, while expansive floor-to-ceiling windows draw the eye outward to the backyard. The addition of black-paned windows, a covered porch, a rectangular pool, and minimalist landscaping with a circular driveway mirror the home’s clean lines and new, contemporary character.

An unexpected moment that defines the home's persona lies in the powder room. At first glance, the wallcovering appears to be a traditional toile, but closer inspection reveals iconic illustrations of the Brooklyn Bridge, Coney Island Cyclone, hot dog carts, and even Notorious B.I.G. It’s a playful nod to the family’s roots and a reminder that home is as much about memory as it is about place.
