A Playhouse Design in Locust

This playhouse project was my Design for the 2011 VNA Designer House Tour, in Locust, NJ. The playhouse was built with mortar and brick many years ago by the owners ten year old son. It was completed with the help of his grandfather, many years later, before he went off to College. I was able to create an authentic design by using his toys, tricycle and many collections. Only a few antiques were purchased or borrowed for this design. As shown in the BEFORE picture the original floor was made of plywood. Flagstone pieces found in the garden on the property and broken to size were installed as the permanent floor. The white painted brick walls were painted  a mellow yellow for a sunny and youthful look.
