Bristol’s story is one of peeling back the layers to discover a hidden gem. This home was located in one of Denver’s historic neighborhoods, which gave us the ability to refer to images of what the original building was before previous renovations. Bringing this structure back to its former glory became an obsession. Upon removing the stucco that had been applied in the 90s, we discovered the brick could not be restored. It was then that we drew inspiration from the Georgian architecture of Bristol and decided to introduce soft concrete plaster, which we carried to the interiors. One of the many changes we made was restoring the original location of the staircase, which had been altered in a previous renovation, and introduced many shades of polishing. Now when opening the door, thanks to this process of discovery and creative reinventing, one experiences what they might have experienced a century ago in this simple Georgian country home, nestled quietly in its historic neighborhood.
