A former chapel in Bay View was converted into a forever home by its owners, who enlisted the help of design-minded family members to assist with the historic renovation. Material selections were carefully curated to honor the history of the space, as if they had always been, while still expressing the homeowners’ desire for a more modern lifestyle.The interior color palette is seemingly inspired by the chapel’s original stained glass windows, with earthy hues like terracotta and olive green reflected throughout, and more contemporary features, such as the dramatic black exterior siding and modular furnishings, are not only practical, but aesthetically pleasing, as well. “A charming rescue effort transformed into a respectful, well-detailed and scaled home within the original footprint,” wrote one judge.
