Design & Culture

Architecture Embracing charm

Arrive Wilmington Architecture

Architecture Embracing charm

Housed in a restored historic structure, the building has been reworked to preserve its original proportions.

Architectural details reference its past life, while new layers of color, material, and artwork introduce a more expressive visual identity, bringing contemporary energy to the façade and interior experience.

Interior design Avi Brosh and the Palisociety design team

Interiors combine midcentury references with a contemporary coastal sensibility, layering color, texture, and material contrast throughout.

Restored architectural surfaces are paired with custom furnishings and expressive finishes, creating an atmosphere that feels both nostalgic and freshly interpreted. Retro furniture, hardwood floors, warm colors, and painted brick all flow together to form a stimulating setting.
