This month, the Avondale Residence is featured as a Dwell+ exclusive. “Before & After: A Houston Photographer Casts New Light on a Historic Craftsman” shares the story of how Divya Pande and Nakul Gupta fell in love with the 1910 Craftsman home while on neighborhood walks. They courageously commited to restore the home and hired HRDD to help. Together, with an amazing team including Park Lane Builders, Santee Engineering and XO Design Group, we were able to help Divya and Nakul realize their dream.

"My favorite thing about our house is the timelessness of the design," says Nakul. "It brings the tempo down to a certain level of calm and peace, which I appreciate." Divya agrees. "It brings me so much joy seeing how the light changes in every room during different times of day and over the seasons. I find the spaces simply enchanting."

Big thanks to writer Lauren Gallow and the Dwell team for sharing this special project.
