1962 SW Hills Midcentury Modern

A whole house remodel was focused on bringing in more natural light & improving the flow from one space to the next.

Bringing in Light and Improving Flow in a Whole House Remodel

MAIN LIVING SPACE

The front door brings you into a spacious living room, now open to the dining room & kitchen. The home had spectacular lines focusing outward toward the view. We complemented the mahogany ceiling treatment by adding a cantilevered curved shelf between the living & dining rooms.


The fireplace, original to the home, was restored with new tile & a new oak mantel, & outdated wood paneling was replaced with built-in shelves to showcase the family’s books & treasures. A new mirror above the mantel gives the illusion that the ceiling pattern wraps around to infinity. Shag carpeting was replaced by White Oak floors with inlaid tile detail.


KITCHEN

The kitchen was originally cut off from the dining room by a wall that blocked the light & a great view. Removing those walls created a loft-like feel, connecting dining room, kitchen & master suite.


A breakfast bar, cool midcentury pendant lights & custom walnut cabinets with white door & drawer faces help to create a light, bright social space in the kitchen. A mobile custom island provides flexible storage. Subtly metallic tile at the range’s backsplash adds light & shimmer to the space.


MASTER BEDROOM

A pocket door between the kitchen & master bedroom creates an open flow between the spaces. A wall of full – lite windows & doors was installed to capture light & create a better connection to the back patio. The charcoal walls & sculptural wool duvet add a modern touch that draws your eye to the owner’s artwork above the bed.
