Space-Age Modern

When Mike and kristen Graham decided to move from their home in Locust Point to leafy northern Baltimore County, they left behind a lot of things they appreciated: a house with a contemporary interior, a bustling urban life, and easy access to Starbucks. But they had fallen absolutely in love with a house’s wooded lot in Baldwin, which promised a quiet haven for the busy couple—who both work in medical-device sales—and their two young children, now ages 5 and 9.
