“Homes tell stories,” as Haydel likes to say, and he often opens a front door and sees the story—including the occasional plot twist—waiting to be told. When Haydel stepped over the threshold of a 1980s North Andover house to assess a redesign of the first floor’s main rooms, he took in a lot, including its odd floor plan. “Like many 1980s homes, there were these weird measurements,” he recalls. Flow was interrupted by underused spaces, such as the dining room, which the architecture decreed would be a formal space. “The family didn’t want it so formal,” Haydel says. “This is a young family with kids. The dining room was becoming a place to dump things.” In the meantime, the formal living room “had turned into a gym” covered in blue tumbling mats in constant use by the couple’s three children. The furniture was oversized. “I remember cringing a bit, thinking, ‘You’ve got to do more,’” he says, with a light laugh. But what really grabbed Haydel was the antique China Tang dynasty horse by the fireplace. “It was really interesting; that this started the conversation,” he says. “The homeowner said it should go to the basement.” But Haydel saw a lot of history and emotional value in the little horse. He decided they would build on it. Today the house rings with a modern, easy mood threaded with historical perspective, using subtle designs sometimes repeated for cohesion. A lovely oriental lattice pattern, for instance, appears in the Nina Campbell wallpaper on the walls of the adjacent first-floor office and in the Clarence House pillows on the plush blue Mitchell Gold + Bob Williams living room sofa. “We pulled that reference again and again,” Haydel says of the lattice design. The sleeper sofa, besides being a clear focal point, serves an important purpose, allowing the homeowners to accommodate an older family member who sometimes needs help. “We needed to have something that’s beautiful enough to anchor the room, but that will also function properly,” he says. “It made the space function really well.” (The tumbling mats disappeared into the basement, where the kids are quite happy with them.) Blue, whether an organic ocean shade or an electric eye-popper, is a strong preference of Haydel and his staff. “I like to start with blue,” he says. “It’s a vast array of color.” The color adds spark throughout the living room, appearing in the carpet, the swivel chairs, and the blueberry blue coffee table. (The minute the coffee table was placed, Haydel says, the youngest child jumped on it.)

Reminds of the joke floating around in the 90’s ? about what a help desk for cars would be like, if cars were like computers.

The exhibition opening for Rediscovery, Restoration and Renewal: The Eldridge Street Synagogue in Photographs will take place on Thursday, September 14 from 6 to 8 pm. The exhibition will be on view through March 1, 2018. Ten years ago, the Museum completed the restoration of the Eldridge Street Synagogue. In celebration of this milestone, this photography exhibition provides a visual record of that painstaking process. These haunting photographs capture the rediscovery of the synagogue during its most precarious years. In color and stark black and white, they recall the building’s undeniable poignancy and power even as it was a "rainstorm away from collapse." Images of the restoration document the synagogue’s dramatic transformation and the artisans who brought the building back to life. Drawings and photographs also capture the building’s 21st-century renewal and the installation of a new stained glass window designed by artist Kiki Smith and architect Deborah Gans. Rediscovery, Restoration and Renewal: The Eldridge Street Synagogue in Photographs will be on view through March 1, 2018.

A covered dining area and a gathering spot in front of the fireplace make the Hills’ patio a great place to entertain.

We love the frameless back of the Herman Miller Sayl chair, which provides great support at an affordable price. For something more zany, the Hag Capisco Puls is worth a look, as well as being eco-friendly. For the most iconic, well-engineered chair – regardless of the price-tag – our vote goes to the Herman Miller Aeron.
