Connecticut 住宅丨美国康涅狄格丨Ryan Lawson

在27年前，当餐馆老板Rose Bonura在康涅狄格州Stamford买下她那幢18世纪的历史建筑时，她就梦想着有一天它能得到恰当而辉煌的修复。这可能花了20多年的时间，但这一天终于是到来了，这要归功于一位饥饿的旅行者，他有一天在这里徘徊，后来吃了很多的饭。

When restaurateur Rose Bonura bought her historic 18th-century home 27 years ago in Stamford, Connecticut, she dreamed of the day when it could be properly and gloriously restored. It might have taken just over two decades, but the time finally came, thanks to a hungry traveler who wandered in one day for his first of many, many meals.

这位访客就是纽约的室内设计师Ryan Lawson。Lawson和他的伴侣在康涅狄格州有一所房子，离市区大约有一小时的路程，几乎每个周末，他们都会去新Canaan的一家名叫Rosie的餐厅吃饭。这位热爱美食的设计师和热爱设计的美食家很快建立了联系。他们都意识到，Bonura的房子的改造将是一个共同的、富有爱的工作。

That visitor was New York–based interior designer Ryan Lawson. Lawson's partner and he have a house up in Connecticut about an hour outside the city and practically every weekend, they go to a restaurant in New Canaan called Rosie,” Lawson says. The food-loving designer and the design-loving foodie quickly bonded. Bonura’s house, they both realized, would be a shared labor of love.

在过去的四年里，Lawson一直在小心翼翼地翻新和更新Bonura的两层Colonial住宅的内部。“神奇的是，她是这栋房子自1730年建成以来的第五位主人，这简直不可思议。”原来的主人有六个孩子，在博努拉开始管理之前，这处房产已经传了五代。然而，在1994年买下这座1300平方英尺的房子后，Bonura的重点是养育两个孩子，后来，又经营她那家受欢迎的餐馆。

Lawson has spent the past four years carefully renovating and updating the interiors of Bonura’s two-story Colonial. “Miraculously, she is only the fifth owner since it was built in 1730, which is crazy to think about.” The original owners had six children, and the property was passed down five generations before Bonura’s stewardship began. However, after buying the 1,300-square-foot house in 1994, Bonura’s sole focus was raising two children and, later, running her popular eatery.

第一件事是把原来的后门廊围起来，把这个空间变成一个通向厨房的长开放式用餐区。它上面有房子原来的屋顶线，所以Lawson把它打开到椽子，他们保留了房子前面的房间，让它们保持原来的规模。

The first order of business was to enclose the original back porch and turn the space into a long open-concept dining area that flows into the kitchen. It has the original roofline of the house above it, so Lawsonv opened it up to the rafters, they kept the rooms at the front of the house intact and left them the original scale.
