Vinegar Hill Interior Design
A few Belgian-block blocks of early nineteenth-century houses and converted industrial buildings, directly east of DUMBO.
Small Rooms, Serious History
Vinegar Hill is one of the smallest historic districts in the city, and its Federal and Greek Revival houses were built long before open-plan living existed. Rooms are compact, ceilings are lower than in the warehouses nearby, and stairs eat floor area.
Design here is an exercise in precision. Furniture is selected by the inch, storage is built into places that would otherwise be dead space, and mirrors and lighting are used to keep small rooms from feeling closed in.
Because many of these houses are landmarked, exterior changes and window replacements are tightly controlled. Our work concentrates on the interior: layout, joinery direction, finishes, lighting, and furnishing that suit the period without freezing the house in it.
Converted industrial buildings on the district's edges offer the opposite condition — larger volumes needing the zoning strategies we use across DUMBO.
