All About

Product Ideas

The homeowner admired this Washington neighborhood for many years and jumped at the opportunity to purchase a brownstone property. But the interior had been divided into five apartment units and required a total remodel to create a comfortable home.

Architect Lisa Rigazio's design created an open, modern feel to the former apartment building while maintaining the historical character of the old brownstone. The entire third floor was transformed into a new master suite. The basement was turned into a rental unit with the addition of a new kitchen. Inside, the rooms are open and airy with lots of light and some unique modern touches.
