19th Century Home
Homeworks: What’s your very favorite feature of the home? Tell us why.
Leslie Hanna: My favorite feature in my house has to be all of the natural light. When my remodel project was completed [which opened the eves to move both bedrooms to the second level and increased the lower level’s kitchen space], we had opened up all of the main floor and added a big picture window along the staircase on the second floor allowing light to stream through the house on all sides and all times of the day.
Hw: Any favorite memories in the house? Or things you hope to do here that will become memories?
LH: I have lived in this house for over 22 years and without a doubt, my favorite memory, or rather a collection of memories, is experiencing my son growing up here.
Hw: What’s your design process?
LH: My design process is to be in a constant state of editing. I have noticed how clutter can easily accumulate in my house, and living in a small space can make that even more obvious. Remembering to revolve the things that no longer serve a purpose when something new comes in has been the right formula for me.
