Joel Fazende, who had also designed the clients' former home, was the guiding force from start to finish in transitioning them from a spacious traditional house to a more manageable, traditional townhome, perfectly blending classic elegance with modern practicality. He provided comprehensive end-to-end support throughout the project, from consulting on the renovation to meticulously selecting finishes, upholstery, and paint, ensuring every detail was in harmony with the clients' vision for a space that marries tradition with contemporary sensibilities. Under his leadership, the townhome was transformed from its outdated 1980s look to a sleek, modern aesthetic while retaining its traditional charm. Joel's deep understanding of the clients' tastes, cultivated through their previous collaboration, enabled him to balance functional living with aesthetic appeal effectively, optimizing space without sacrificing style. This made the downsizing process graceful and efficient, aligning with a lifestyle that cherishes both adventure and the warmth of coming home.
