Episode 3: Prairie Style

Alice and Jim Chegia live in a prairie-style stucco home that was built in the 1920s. They love the strong lines of this two-story house with its broad eaves and massive chimney running up the center of the façade. Designer Jane Powell brings out the period details in the architecture, then transforms the solid paint color to contrasting tones of green, ivory and burgundy. Powell also adds period fixtures, augments the front landscaping, and modifies the color and shape of the front picket fence to complement the solid mass of the prairie house.
