Giraffe Design Build

Originally built in 1889, The Folk Victorian was mostly influenced by Colonial design, with a few stand-out Victorian elements. We made it our mission to maintain the folksy charm in our extensive renovation.

The walls were painted white while the trim and doors were painted a plain beige, but the built-ins were the jewels. We did a moss green kitchen, blue/green mudroom, cobalt blue vanity, and plum entertainment center - yes I said plum!

Co-Designers: Steven Varnum, Ashley Kipfmiller
