In the midst of planning a renovation of their two-family brownstone, some homeowners are trying to decide how significantly to change the layout of each unit. Their architect showed them a first round of drawings suggesting removing all the walls at the rear of each unit to create a kitchen open to dining and living room spaces. The owners are looking for renovation stories from others. Have others regretted renovating to an open floor plan?

Please chime in with your advice.
