our restoration

Through the years we have made it our business to fashion one-of-a-kind, quality furniture, kitchens and baths. We have completed an extensive restoration on our own home - creating our ideal, 1930's era pantry, kitchen and bathroom. Upstairs, from three former bedrooms, we've assembled his and hers studios, where we pursue our fine art.

Our restoration philosophy - do as little damage as possible to the original fabric of the house - recreate lost elements that are important and take care to make improvements that reflect and respect the home's 116-year history.

Each room encompasses a spare balance between old (antiques connecting us with history) and new (contemporary art as food for our spirit). Our decoration philosophy is simple - surround ourselves with the things that we love. The walls are a gallery for our personal work and a collection of paintings by New York School, mid-century artist, Raymond Hendler.

We have been fortunate to gather volumes of material connected to our home (photos, documents, letters, personal objects, etc.) from many sources, including Golding descendents and friends. We never anticipated what could be produced by simple inquiries - or the friends that we would make along the way.
