1928 Tudor Revival: A Dallas Historic Home Brought Back to Life

Some projects are special, and then some feel downright legendary. This one? It’s both.
Kate, a longtime client (our favorite kind!), first worked with us in 2018 when we designed her previous home from top to bottom. It was the perfect blend of style and function—until disaster struck before we could even capture it in photos (more on that in a moment).
But Kate is a force of nature and was not going to go down without a fight. She enlisted us to help with her new home. She found a real gem—a Tudor-style home in Kessler Park, one of Dallas’s most sought-after historic neighborhoods.
While the exterior held onto its 1920s charm, the interior was another story. 90+ years of renovations had stripped the house of its original character, leaving behind a disjointed, semi-disaster of space that didn’t do justice to its roots. No more moulding. No Tudor details. And a chopped up floor plan that made zero sense.
This home was crying out for a thoughtful, era-honoring revival, infused with Kate's style (flawless) and personality (larger than life).
We partnered with the Dallas Morning News to document the entire transformation—from what happened to her last home, to the design plans, construction progress, and final reveal.

This post beautifully highlights how sustainable practices can make a real difference in preserving biodiversity. I love how the ranch uses natural methods without harmful chemicals and relies on rainwater harvesting for irrigation. It’s impressive to see such dedication to self-sufficiency and respect for nature. The use of sage plants for traditional purposes adds a cultural touch that connects the land and its people in a meaningful way.การ์ดแต่งงาน

This post really speaks to me! I’ve often felt weighed down by the constant cycle of cleaning and organizing, and it can be exhausting when the house feels like it controls you instead of the other way around. Decluttering truly makes a difference—it’s not just about removing “stuff” but creating mental clarity and peace. I’ve noticed that when I let go of things I don’t need, I feel lighter, calmer, and even more productive.RICS Survey
