Through a series of surgical interventions, CIVILIAN transformed the parlor level of a historic Fort Greene townhouse for an active family, turning the previously cramped and partitioned space into a free-flowing living-and-dining area that better supports the client’s lifestyle. By boldly rethinking circulation and discreetly integrating storage, the redesign creates open, flexible spaces for family life, working, and entertaining guests. Throughout, CIVILIAN modernized the interiors while embracing and elevating their historic character by crafting contemporary elements that integrate sympathetically with original features of the house.
