Answer

Keep craftsmanship because it defines your home’s unique character and soul. Original wood trim, hand-painted details, and built-ins offer timeless charm that modern touches can enhance rather than erase. Preserving these elements while updating colors and lighting maintains your home's personality and warmth, making updates feel intentional, not generic. It’s the craftsmanship that sets your space apart and creates lasting appeal.
