Description
This Italian Village couple loved their home — except for one thing. The front door opened straight into the living room, with no space in between to land. So we gave them a proper arrival: a mudroom with transom windows for natural light and hand-laid brick flooring designed to look original to the house.
Then we finished the job outside, building out a full outdoor cooking area — two grills, generous countertops, and plenty of storage — turning an already-great backyard into a space made for cooking, gathering, and unwinding.
