The secret’s out…

February 15, 2023 by Cristin Morgan

We made the cut!

We’re thrilled to share that u-fab has been selected as one of the designers for the Richmond Symphony League’s 2023 Designer House! Our very own Will Chambers will be leading the redesign of the formal Living Room. We can’t wait to show you what he has in store!

This year’s Designer House is the Taylor Estate, located at Located at 2325 Monument Avenue.

From the Richmond Symphony League:

“This gorgeous house was designed by the renowned architect, Duncan Lee in an Italian Renaissance Revival style. Originally built in 1915 and owned by Jaquelin Plummer Taylor, the Taylor Estate boasts two gardens designed by the prominent landscape architect, Charles Freeman Gillette. The house is in the Monument Avenue Historic District, and this will be the first opportunity for the public to tour the home. The beautiful proportions and details of this exquisite home will fascinate and inspire you.“

(We’ve already gotten a few sneak peeks of the Taylor Estate and can confirm: it’s IMPRESSIVE.)

The Richmond Symphony League is a volunteer organization that supports the Richmond Symphony through fundraising, education, and community involvement. Designer House is their signature event, occurring every two years. For each Designer House, the RSL selects a large host home and invites local designers to compete for the opportunity to decorate one of the many spaces inside and outside the home, donating their time and materials. Photos of past Designer Houses are available on the Richmond Symphony League’s website.

We’re honored to have been selected as one of this year’s designers alongside so many talented local design groups, and we can’t wait to invite you inside next fall.

Taylor Estate will be open to the public on September 11, 2023, and will remain open through October 9, 2023.
