Being Home With the Brownstone Boys (Jordan Slocum and Barry Bordelon)

Being Home With the Brownstone Boys (Jordan Slocum and Barry Bordelon)

On the Being Home With Hunker podcast host @laurie.gunning.grossman is talking with The Brownstone Boys.


The Brownstone Boys, otherwise known as Jordan Slocum and Barry Bordelon, are interior designers, DIY-ers, and renovators of historic brownstones in Brooklyn, New York.


They share in this episode that after they purchased their first home together — which, yes, was a brownstone —they started a blog and Instagram account about their renovation process. What started as something to share with family and friends quickly turned into them helping other people renovate their brownstones. So, they did what anyone else would have done! They quit their corporate jobs and became the Brownstone Boys.


Jordan and Barry talk about their passion for preserving original details when renovating brownstones. They say that craftsmanship is very important to them and that their biggest goal is restoring the way brownstones used to be made.


They also discuss the definition of a brownstone, they share tips for anyone about to embark on a renovation, no matter they style of their space, and they suggest the two biggest things everyone should talk to their contractors about at the start of any project.


Finally, you’ll hear them share on how history has unfolded — meaning, the things they’ve discovered — when they’ve opened walls during some of their renovation projects.
