Chapel Hill Home
This Chapel Hill, North Carolina residential design project included full-scale renovation management, finishes selection, and furnishings, for a 1930s Colonial Revival home located in the Gimghoul Road area of Chapel Hill, North Carolina. The project aim was to create a comfortable and classic southern home, appropriate for a young family. Highlights include a mix of antique and newly sourced light fixtures, and furniture, as well as a nuanced color palette of blues and greens, developing off the living room paint color, Farrow & Ball French Gray No. 18. This home was featured in the March 2018 issue of Southern Living.
Farrow & Ball French Gray No. 18 is the living room wall and trim color, creating a sophisticated, moody and livable space. The sofa is by George Smith, covered in a French blue linen and pillows in vintage textiles. The pair of chairs are antique French Louis XVI style in mohair.
The dining room is wallpapered in a romantic floral Pierre Frey wallcovering, a round trestle table, and vintage chairs painted in Farrow & Ball’s Breakfast Room Green No. 81.
The breakfast nook is clad with woven wood shades from Conrad, and a wrap-around banquette. The chairs are by Soane Britain, in a Quadrille printed linen fabric.
The vanity chair is by Soane Britain, and upholstered in a Le Manach woven fabric.
