Interior Design — How To Design A Home For A Couple With Different Styles

Architect Wanda Ely seamlessly blends different styles in this unique family home. See how she took both of the homeowners’ requests into account to create a space that’s practical and stylish. Partners Jennifer Horvath and Shawn Winsor had different priorities when it came to renovating their home. Shawn is a design enthusiast, whereas Jennifer is most concerned with having a space that’s functional for the family. Wanda blended form and function to create a space they both love. The kitchen, dining area and mudroom are modern and graphic with black accents and bold tile. The modern kitchen is also full of storage and has a large island that’s perfect for cooking family meals. A handsome library sitting room has floor-to-ceiling bookshelves and a more traditional, sophisticated look than the rest of the house, yet flows together beautifully.
