Transformation of a Classic IN THE HANDS OF A TRUE ARCHITECTURAL MASTER, A 1930’S TUDOR UNDERGOES THE DELICATE PROCESS OF COMING OF AGE. TEXT Daniel Contelmo + Jackson Finds

W

ith the intention of designing a modest renovation to improve their kitchen and open up the space to the rest of the home, the owners of this 1930’s Tudor approached Daniel Contelmo Architects, located in the Hudson River Valley of NY. As design conversations began around how the kitchen would be opened to the adjacent rooms, Contelmo suggested adding a proper mudroom for their small children. Soon thereafter, ultimately driven by a desire to create spaces of equal quality and functionality, updates to the family room, guest room, sunroom, and bathroom were included. Realizing the importance of extending their home’s living spaces outdoors as well, a two level back deck with a custom pergola and a new stone grilling area were also absorbed into the renovations. This all resulted in a beautiful transformational project –with benefits to aesthetics and function.
