Library in historic Samuel Bridge House, Lexington, MA. | May 2007 | Bookcases and with base cupboards installed along one wall of a room in the historic Samuel Bridge House, Lexington, MA. Floor and walls were all severly out of plumb, square, and level, making everything from design to installation more of a challenge than usual for a job of this scope. Exterior walls were part daub-and-wattle construction, covered with ancient scratch plaster and subsequent applications of plaster, sp securing the cabinets was tricky. Existing historic moldings were replicated on the new work to match the old. | $7k | Lexington, MA | |
