Architect Gil Schafer was the right choice for the owner of William Gatewood house in Charleston, SC to make their house back to their original appearance. He has a distinct talent and great taste that’s obvious so he can make the house looks very nice even it seems empty.
The house was build as a mixture of Greek Revival and Classical revival styles. An elevator was removed from the porch or piazza allowing the windows and archway to be reopened. The porches were replaced on the attached kitchen house and the original doorways reopened. The scene scape wallpaper in the dining room look so phenomenal – it works so well not only on a scalar level, but the varying depths of the broad expanse of walls also gives it a three-dimensional quality as if the room were really inside of the forest.
