Color Me Beautiful

44th Place, NW, DC

In the summer of 2014, Chryssa Wolfe and Hanlon Design Build delivered this stoic home in the highly sought-after neighborhood of Wesley Heights, Washington, DC. The old-world facade features a grey stone veneer, curved roof lines, and a Majestic slate roof. The exterior is also enhanced by an elevated stone terrace with an al fresco kitchen, exterior fireplace, bamboo fencing, and a permeable brick paver driveway. Behind the custom mahogany front entrance, lies quite a surprise. Chryssa Wolfe is renowned for her passion for color and creativity. Every now and then Chryssa will encounter a client with an equal zeal for color. This spectacular home was created from such a fortuitous encounter. The result is a masterful composition of color, texture, and contrast which emanates from the lighting fixtures to wallpaper. Vibrant colors prevail throughout this one-of-a-kind home featuring the kitchen island with custom fabric panels, the eccentric dining room chandelier, the electrifying home gymnasium, and a fabulous sitting room with ceiling-hung swings and an industrial sliding door. If you have an affinity for color and eccentricity, this is the home for you.
