A Loving Remodel for High-School Sweethearts
高中情侣的住宅空间改造<非专业翻译>
It's like something out of a book: Michael and Ellie Mroz locked eyes their freshman year of high school in Westfield, N.J., and have been together ever since. After graduating from high school and college, the couple moved back to their hometown where both of their families still live. They found their dream house — a 72-year-old home on a tree-lined street. The house hadn't been changed in more than 60 years, so the couple had to redo almost everything. "We wanted to expand and update the home, and infuse our clean, classic and coastal
style into the existing structure," Ellie says.
它喜欢的东西出自一本书:迈克尔和艾莉科鲁兹目光锁定在新泽西州韦斯特菲尔德,他们的高中一年级,就已共同生活 。从高中和大学毕业后,夫妻俩搬回到他们的家乡即他们家族一直生活的地方。他们发现,他们的梦想中的房子-一个绿树成荫的街道上的72房龄的屋子。在60年之后房子就一直没有被改变,所以夫妻俩不得不重重新装修所有东西。“我们希望扩大和翻新屋子,我们想把干净,经典和沿海的风格,并融入现有的结构中去”艾莉说。
Michael was the general contractor for the home, so he and Ellie decided to make minimal changes to the exterior of the house.The couple wanted to maintain the home's original look and fit the rest of the neighborhood.A new garage was added to the home, but the only other changes outside are copper flashing and new trim.
迈克尔是屋子装修的总负责,所以他和Ellie决定,进行一些小改动的房子外观 。这对夫妻希望维持家庭的原来的样子,适合附近的休息 。为屋子增加一个新的车库,但至此之外的其他变化是铜皮泛水和新的修剪。
