The Georgian Schoolhouse emanates soul, character and magic, brimming in history and charm. The design sought to harness this and accentuate it, bringing this home into a new era.

Enhancing interior architecture for modern amenities posed hurdles amidst conservation constraints, requiring careful preservation of a home that felt timeless and embedded within the building's essence.

Drawing from the building's character, the design aimed for a spirited ambiance. The rear extension with a sunken conversation pit fostered family interaction, visually connecting with the garden as well as visually connecting to every layer of the original house.

“A veritable minaudière of jewel-toned rooms, antique pieces and clever design, this Galwegian schoolhouse has been carefully considered with family living in mind. “ Lauren Heskin, Image Interiors & Living
