D.C. architecture firm takes on narrow Capitol Hill rowhouse

The task of seamlessly remodeling a narrow, cramped and poorly lit historic rowhouse is never easy, but Richard Loosle, of Kube Architecture, managed just that in the Capitol Hill neighborhood of the District.

“Our ground floor was dark and choppy, with a formal dining room in front we rarely used and a staircase and wall separating that from the kitchen and backroom, which we used a lot,” said Vince Willmore, who shares the two-bedroom home with Orie Snider.
