By The Staff of the Concord Magazine.
Much is made of Concord's 17th, 18th and 19th century past. Many of us try to preserve a staid, classic New England appearance to our homes. Indeed: Concord contains several historic districts. Our town owes much of its prized atmosphere to these efforts. Both residential and commercial properties in these areas have their street-views carefully regulated to maintain their historic character.
But, what about those of us who seek to maintain a less historic than a somewhat hysteric character? Is there room for those who make a less-than-classic statement?
When it comes to their homes, there are folks here who, uh, color to the stroke of a different crayon. No, these homes are not on the cutting edge of outsider art, but considering their more conservative neighbors, they do tend to stand out. This page is a tribute to their strong use of color, creating an untraditional -- and beautiful -- result.
