This is one my all-time favorite projects.  My client, Susan, (who is wonderful to work with) inherited this home in a lovely neighborhood in Fort Worth, Texas from her parents.  And while I’m sure it was quite chic in its day, like all things, there comes a time when change is due.  Susan is all about her love of horses which we incorporated into the design scheme.  We were able to use some of her parents cherished pieces – the English secretary, the marble table, the baby grand piano – and incorporate them into the new look as well.  So while she has a fresh, new space to call her own, she is able to enjoy some of the sentimental pieces once enjoyed by her mom and dad.    How’s this for a transformation!
