Über diesen Titel

In Part One of this two-part series, Meghan and Krissa explore the enduring charm and emotional resonance of older homes. From historic architecture and thoughtful craftsmanship to the sense of soul that only time can create, this episode celebrates what makes old houses so special—and why so many homeowners feel drawn to them.

The conversation dives into the intangible qualities that can’t be replicated in new construction: layered neighborhoods, gracious proportions, hand-crafted millwork, and the stories embedded within the walls. Meghan and Krissa also discuss the realities of owning and renovating an older home—balancing romance with responsibility—and how thoughtful design can honor the past while supporting modern living.

This episode is an ode to character, history, and the beauty of homes that have lived a life before us.
Street Style Takeaways:
  • Old homes have soul.
    There’s an emotional depth in older houses—the sense of history, memory, and human connection—that simply can’t be manufactured.
  • Craftsmanship matters.
    From detailed millwork and taller baseboards to solid materials and intentional proportions, older homes showcase a level of artistry that feels increasingly rare.
  • Neighborhoods tell a story.
    Historic streets often feature architectural diversity, walkability, and a layered aesthetic that creates a richer sense of place.
  • Patina is a feature, not a flaw.
    Wear, aging, and imperfections add warmth and authenticity—embracing them is part of loving an old home.
  • Renovation requires respect.
    Updating an older home isn’t about erasing its past, but thoughtfully enhancing it while preserving its integrity.
  • Romance vs. reality.
    Older homes come with surprises—systems, maintenance, and constraints—but for many, the character outweighs the challenges.
  • Design is a bridge between eras.
    Great design allows old homes to function beautifully for modern life while honoring what made them special in the first place.
