Modern Shades of Blue

Located in Washington, DC’s Fort Lincoln neighborhood, this spacious townhome was thoughtfully designed around a cohesive color story, creating a seamless flow from one space to the next. Layers of blues and greens carry throughout the home, while the whimsical nursery introduces soft lavender hues to create its own enchanting retreat.

Guests are welcomed by a dramatic two-story entry featuring a textured wallcovering that makes an elegant first impression. Just beyond, the powder room embraces bold design with rich finishes and striking details, while the dining room pairs teal and gold accents with geometric patterns that become a recurring design element throughout the home.

The living room transitions into a sophisticated palette of navy and gray, creating a warm, inviting gathering space centered around the fireplace. A pair of swivel chairs offers the flexibility to engage in conversation with guests or simply rotate toward the fire and television for a cozy evening at home.

The lower level was designed with both hospitality and function in mind. A comfortable guest suite with a private bathroom provides visitors with their own welcoming retreat, while a custom-designed workshop maximizes storage and organization through built-in cabinetry and shelving. A vintage soda machine adds a playful touch and reflects the homeowners’ personality.

Upstairs, the nursery was created as a whimsical space for baby Zoey to grow and explore. Soft lavender tones, playful animal accents, and a charming reading nook with a tree-inspired bookshelf create a room filled with imagination, comfort, and warmth. Grab a book from the tree and snuggle up for story time!

The home’s color story concludes in the loft, where a luxurious blue velvet sofa, plush rug, and layered textiles create the perfect place to unwind, watch a movie, or enjoy a quiet afternoon.

The result is a home that feels cohesive yet distinctive, with each room expressing its own personality while remaining connected through thoughtful color, carefully layered textures, and timeless design.
