Stage 4: Bedroom
Although the home's master bedroom is simple and modern in design, David incorporated decorating elements that reflect the history of the structure. The Charles Rennie Mackintosh-style bed is a nod to the Arts and Crafts movement that inspired part of the home's design. The existing bay window is dressed with long draperies that puddle on the floor, enhancing the grandeur of the high ceilings, which aren't often featured in newer homes.
