Dream Homes
In fall, the color of this backyard in Charlottesville, Virginia, changes daily with the foliage. Elizabeth Birdsall marvels how new outdoor spaces on her property, like a patio furnished with upholstered seating from Gloster, make enjoying the woods an easy experience: “It’s like comfortable camping, all the time.”
Ceilings are typically composed of concrete beams and blocks that are covered with drywall and paint. But for this project, the architects left them bare to texturize the room. ”It creates a beautiful contrast with the snow white walls and splashes of yellow,” they explain. The painting on the wall is by Magdalena Karpińska.
