THIS CENTREVILLE, MARYLAND, HOUSE, by architect Gregory Torchio and D.C. interior architect/designer JD Ireland, shows that a design can be “country” without sacrificing modernity. The generous use of wood for framing and ceilings—but not for the floors!—adds visual warmth to the more industrial glass and concrete.
