Jungwirth and Martin sit on the
front steps of their recently renovated home, which is one of five in a
once-dilapidated building.

Martin is originally from the D.C.
metro area but has called Pittsburgh home for the past 11 years. College
friends from Penn State initially lured her to Pittsburgh, and the
architecture, character and affordability enticed her to stay and open Pavement, a clothing and shoe store.

Martin requested that the reclaimed wood floors — rescued from a Polish dance hall that was torn down to make room for the Tower at PNC Plaza
(billed as the greenest skyscraper in the world) — not be "refinished
in any way in order to preserve the aged patina and unique color
variations," she says.

Years of abandonment meant the
kitchen had to be completely gutted. Exposed original ceiling beams,
simple white subway tiles, open shelving and Ikea cabinets painted blue
now highlight the couple's eclectic aesthetic. They spent extra time
selecting the finishes in the kitchen, as well as in the bathroom,
because they felt these would be a more permanent investment.

Behind Lakota, the couple's
Alaskan Malamute mix, is a wooden console displaying travel mementos.
Martin and Jungwirth spend most of their time on this first floor
entertaining friends and hanging out with their beloved dogs.

This sitting room, which is a
work in progress, is home to the couple's vintage record player,
acquired from the set of the film The Perks of Being a Wallflower.

The bedroom loft is on the third floor, where original pine flooring has been patched, sanded and sealed with polyurethane.

The bathroom features imported Moroccan hand-printed ceramic floor tiles by U.K. textile designer Dominic Crinson.

Skylights lend a modern touch to the original exposed beam ceiling.

The second-floor bathroom is outfitted in white subway tile, while alluring Moroccan-inspired ceramic tiles from Dominic Crinson line the floor.
