It's fun to see those style elements cycle back around. Back in the early 90s I bought a pediment-topped secretary desk with glass doors and secret compartments (found a WWII era letter stuck inside), and a corner china cabinet that's a smaller version of that built-in you featured, down to the shape of the shelves and the green-painted interior. It has a single door, with a solid glass pane, arched at the top. Both work great in my Spanish-style house, where the pediment tops reach to where the barrel ceilings start. I'll never give up my 'brown furniture'...so solid and well-made. I enjoy all of your videos. Such great information.

What a fantastic video and subject matter - thank you!! I am writing this from near Colonial Williamsburg, where I have a second residence, in great part due to my love of early American architecture. It is so nice to see continued interest in these vernacular structures and style; it has pained me to learn over the last several years that many in the younger generations do not always place similar value on heritage style. I have a collection of mahogany and cherry antiques and faithful reproductions (e.g. Kindel block/shell RI secretary) that i always envisioned gifting to the children of friends as starts to their own collections, but apparently many do not like “brown” and large/heavy pieces, eschewed in favor of IKEA stuff. So sad, to me, at least.

I have a client who is a major collector of early American antiques. He is buying right now because even though prices and appreciation are currently down, they should return. This Ikea generation still longs for well-crafted things, they love their craft beers and craft coffees. Hold onto your furniture, they will come around. Thanks again. B

@@BrentHull Thank you for that encouraging outlook. I desperately want to believe that quality, classic style and longevity-through-durability will win the day, always! It pains me to see companies of high-quality products shrink or fail; examples are Virginia Metalcrafters and Steuben, which I am so glad to have purchased many pieces prior to demise. Blessedly, Steuben is back in business thanks to the Corning Museum of Glass. I also have beloved and numerous of the Stickley "Williamsburg Reserve" reproductions and worry about their solvency, given a smaller product line and imports from Southeast Asia to lower price-points. It will be an enormous shame if we lose the exceptional craftsmanship in many US companies to faster/cheaper. (Even Crane papers has altered their offerings in favor of more thermographing and less engraving)

I love older stuff antiques and old Historic colonial style homes, Greek revival style homes I think their awesome. I'm probably one of the few of the "new" generations that like them. I'm 28 years old by the way so might not quite fit in what you define as "new" generation but I'm still young :)

It is a huge undertaking to bring 50's and 60's colonials to look at the way to they should. I think it is worth it if you plan on staying in the home because today so many people are ripping out the architectural details that made these homes beautiful.

Hi Brent, what is your advice for renovating a 1938 Minimalist Traditional FHA 950 square foot starter home with just two bedrooms? Should one add classical stuff to it or keep design simple and bare bones?

Do you custom build colonial revival homes? How much would it cost to build a home with photographs of classical arqetechure such as the Greek revival style and Antabelluim style with mostly American colonial style classical arqetechure?
