Doreen Chambers Interiors’ clients were not afraid of colour so it was great for the designers to have the opportunity to work with fabrics and wallpapers using a vibrant colour palette. The designers believe that the architectural and interior design wove together seamlessly for a perfect mix of classic and contemporary style. The brownstone is located in the historic neighbourhood of Cobble Hill, Brooklyn and the façade maintains the classical look of others on the block. All the major changes are revealed inside, where small rooms have been opened up and additional windows and doors have been placed on the back walls of each floor so the house is now flooded with light.  Overall the brownstone’s historical integrity has been maintained, while the structural renovation and interior design make it more conducive for raising a modern young family.
