Case Study: 1970s Renovation and Thought Bubble by Donald Lococo Architects
In a high-income neighborhood of historic homes that have more than doubled their size in recent years, there’s a sense of relief—delight, even—in being able to recognize this fully renovated 1970s house.

Case Study: Vale House by Furman + Keil Architects
