Franklin Getchell and Murray Moss, notable for their design store Moss, are transitioning from a rural home in Hamden, Connecticut, to an urban apartment in New Haven. Their motivation stems partly from Moss's health considerations after a Parkinson's diagnosis. They have gathered a diverse collection of design treasures over decades but are now challenged to downsize. Reflecting on their past homes and the decision-making process, they discuss the value of charm in finding a new place and the persuasive prowess of their broker.
Franklin Getchell wrote that after decades in rural America, he and Murray Moss are moving to urban living, signaling a shift from their Colonial Revival home.
Murray describes their current house as not strictly Colonial but of that style, having a paneled living room and unpainted windows, making it exceptionally beautiful.
Franklin mentions they had been looking for two years, focusing on modernist houses before realizing the charm in their current home, led by their persuasive broker.
Murray recounts the moment he saw their current house, instantly falling in love and deciding to buy it based on the unaltered beauty of the space.
