When a young family moved from an apartment in New York City to a 1930s Georgian in Greenwich, Connecticut, they commissioned designers Bill Brockschmidt and Courtney Coleman to create a “very traditional with no modern edge” home. “This couple value the history of the house and consider themselves stewards,” Coleman told Better Homes & Gardens. “So we brought a sense of history to the remodeling that was done and to the interior design.” The designers mixed fine antiques with straw rugs and cotton curtains to tone down the formality for a pretty country house look. Let’s take a look inside with images from Better Homes & Gardens and the portfolio of Brockschmidt & Coleman.

Lovely to see a house restored with respect for the classic and traditional!
I loved that it was restored in this manner. It is so good to see a return to some color mixed in. I am seeing so many new colors in sofas. I am ready for it. I just ordered a new sofa and chair in green. It is due to be here in two weeks. I can’t wait.
The fabric and color choices give this home a wonderful exuberance, proving that traditional doesn’t have to be sedate or stuffy. Love the design choices and so happy the family embraced the traditional aesthetic!
