A couple lives in a 1963 raised ranch in a quiet college town just outside New York City. With two children, busy careers, and a full schedule of weeknight activities, they want their kitchen and bathroom to better reflect their lifestyle and love for hosting family gatherings. Drawn to the neighborhood’s charm and sense of community, they invest in transforming their starter house into a forever home that embraces an expressive style with the statement color avocado green that nods to 1960s roots.
