Good Karma House

Maine Home + Design featured an old home with good bones on the southern Maine coast. To preserve as much character as possible, architect Walter Wilson persuaded the owners to keep the home's original staircase, which they were skeptical of at first. They later warmed up to the idea. Elsewhere in the house, the layout changed completely for efficient flow from room to room.
