A Traditional Home Goes From Bland To Bright & Beautiful

Designer Olivia Botrie of Dart Studio shows how to update a trad home for modern living. She completely overhauled this dark and dated space, breathing new life into every room. See how the front entrance got a much-needed overhaul with a fresh coat of white paint, refinished stairs and a quaint bench. The dining room’s dramatic transformation will also leave you in awe (and inspire you to add color to your ceiling). Plus, you’ll adore the charming vintage details, like the original wooden fireplace mantel and the homeowner’s antique secretary.
