This Old House- Roxbury

February 2010 -
See Bonnie on This Old House Roxbury Project

Color consultant Bonnie Krims once again chooses the exterior paint colors for This Old House. To help celebrate its 30th anniversary season, This Old House TV is giving back to the community where the show got its start in 1979: Boston, Massachusetts. They will completely renovate a foreclosed 1870s Second Empire in Boston's Roxbury neighborhood. Once the job is done, the house's two units will be sold to two deserving area families.

Episodes have been filmed! They are due to air in February- so stay tuned! Here is a photo of Bonnie and This Old House crew on-site in Roxbury.

Perfect Palette Update- Summer 09

Newsletter-Winter 2010

I had a wonderful time this winter working on the latest This Old House® project which is located in Roxbury, MA. My job was to select all of the exterior color elements starting with the roof shingle color. The house is an 1870’s Second Empire Victorian and the mansard roof is its most distinctive feature, so that’s where we began. The show has been shot and will air on PBS Television next month, probably in early February. Stay tuned! Read more...
