Behind the Blueprint at Monument by Green Front: Den Cralle and Al Buczek’s Plans for Historic Restoration

Watch Now

Join Green Front Furniture President and CEO Den Cralle and local craftsman and restoration expert Al Buczek as they tackle the exciting (and sometimes puzzling) process of restoring a hundred-year-old mansion. This video series takes you behind the scenes at 2315 Monument Avenue in Richmond, Virginia. Watch Den and Al explore this historic home’s unique features — from the enigmatic drawing room floor to the mystery of a secret door in the drawing room.

Through careful preservation and creative problem-solving, Den and his team are bringing Monument by Green Front back to life, honoring the design of architect William Bottomley’s 1924 Mediterranean Revival mansion while integrating modern functionality. Follow along as they discuss everything from innovative architectural features to new design possibilities — like a spiral staircase to the rooftop terrace! Monument by Green Front isn’t just a restoration project — it’s a reimagining of historic luxury. 

Keep up with our video series to be part of this ongoing journey into architectural preservation and interior design.
