1. Warm Industrial Condo High Up in a Former Grain Silo
When retired lawyers Jim and Sheila Vidmar’s dream condo came on the market in Baltimore, the empty-nest couple knew they had to jump on it. The two-bedroom, two-bathroom corner unit on the 11th floor of a 24-floor former grain elevator built in 1923 offers sweeping views of the Patapsco River and Chesapeake Bay.
To help maximize the views and cozy up the industrial concrete-and-corrugated steel interiors, the Vidmars hired B. Chic Interiors designer Brigid Wethington, who had worked with them on their previous home. Wethington, who used Houzz Pro software to manage the project, took inspiration from sunsets to bring in a palette of blues, whites and oranges. Durable fabric furnishings and multiple area rugs also soften the rooms, while walnut flooring in a herringbone pattern and other wood details add warmth. A layered lighting scheme enhances design elements without taking away from the stunning views.
