To Update a Midcentury With a Striking Open-Truss Ceiling, They Tracked Down Its Original Architect

The designers removed extraneous elements added by others in the ’70s so that Pedersen’s striking exposed trusses could once again take center stage. They also relocated a vintage Aztec fireplace by Majestic from the den to the step-down family room and fitted it with chimney extensions from Malm Fireplaces. The Tribeca pendant lights are also by Sonneman, while the vintage credenza is from Sunset Bazaar and the television by Samsung.
