Inside a Thoughtfully Restored 1885 Farmhouse

Originally built in 1885, this historic farmhouse-style home has lived many lives.

This Austin Home Proves the Power of Beautiful Restraint

Designer Coco Greenblum approached this Austin renovation with an unusual goal: less. Created for Evlo founder Shannon Ritchey and her growing family, the home balances the demands of everyday life with the needs of a public-facing business. The design is understated but intentional, finding beauty in texture, warmth, and thoughtful restraint.
