These houses were built to last 200 years. They’ve already made it 100. The decisions we make now — the tile, the paint, the hardware — become part of that story. We take that seriously.
Not a showhouse. Not a flip. A home that gets lived in, argued over, and slowly made right for right now. Every room has a before. Every after honors it.
Period-appropriate doesn’t mean precious. Patina doesn’t mean neglect. And “they don’t make them like this anymore” isn’t a problem; it’s the whole point.
Our story
1924 Rosemont documents the decisions, finds, and hard-won lessons that come with living in a 100-year-old house.
From paint, tile, wallpaper, lighting, rugs, vintage hardware, everything we do is considered through the lens of a house that knows what it wants.
