A tranquil townhouse

Posted on Wed, 1 Feb 2023 by midcenturyjo

“A gut renovation and enlargement of a 2 story + garden level 1899 brick townhouse. The project features a new cast-in-place concrete frame extension off the rear, interlocked with the original building. The existing rear brick window openings are enlarged on every floor, creating a generous and fluid series of passageways between the existing rooms and the new extension. A new top floor primary suite is clad in corrugated + perforated Cor-ten siding. The extension includes Douglas Fir structural beams and clerestory windows, providing ample light into the rear spaces from 3 directions. New configurations and finishes throughout include heavy flake oak cabinetry, diamond veneer plaster walls, custom harlequin cement bath tile, and heart pine floors.”

Thoughtful and nuanced, minimalist and stripped back. An exploration of space, materials and the bones of a building. T Townhouse by the New York-based design studio of Thom Dalmas and Bretaigne Walliser TBo.

Sophisticated by the sea

Posted on Mon, 30 Jan 2023 by midcenturyjo

“Ocean views and coastal landscapes inspired a palette of cooler tones, paired with warm flecks in golden-veined stone on the ground floor of a two-storey penthouse. Enhanced by the texture and tactility of materials, such as expressed wood-grained joinery and fluted oak. Upstairs to the master suite, the palette transforms into a moody and masculine interior with deeper tones and richer materials, a more intimate space predominantly occupied at night time. The end result, a space of coastal elegance, classical, yet contemporary.”

Earthy eclectic

Posted on Thu, 26 Jan 2023 by midcenturyjo

“Hidden in the canyon of Irvine, California, this 10,000 square foot home is full of Spanish influences. With architectural foundations like beautiful archways and organic characteristics, our team brought a vision to life that is uniquely exquisite. As a result, you’ll see high ceilings, geometric shapes, plaster throughout, and luxury goods for an eloquent look. With an intentional design approach that is functional and aristocratic, our design encompasses natural light and a trendy color palette.”

Sensuous minimalism

A traditional finca and the masterly touch of Swiss architect and designer Valérie Chomarat has resulted in a sensuous minimalism where tradition meets modern with a restrained line, form and palette.

Palo Alto Eichler

Posted on Tue, 24 Jan 2023 by midcenturyjo

The Atelier Davis team worked with Gustave Carlson Architects to renovate and expand a historic Eichler for a young family with a modern art collection.  Bright, colourful and fun staying true to the Eichler bones but adding the owners’ personalities. Mid-century modern never looked so good.
