Family home on a lake in Louisiana

Posted on Wed, 30 Jul 2025 by midcenturyjo

This spacious Louisiana lake house by TIEK BYDAY was designed as a welcoming haven for an extended family, comfortably sleeping 32 across ten bedrooms and nine bathrooms. Rooted in traditional Acadian architecture, the home features generous communal areas, a large kitchen and a refined bar, all oriented toward lake-view porches for easy indoor-outdoor living. Thoughtfully layered with cozy nooks, alcove beds and deep seating, the design balances grandeur with warmth, making it perfect for gathering, relaxing and entertaining.

Detail oriented

For Jen Cherian of Annarya Design it is all about the details. A kitchen that had great bones so only a rework was done – the different stones with painted and dark wood cabinetry makes this look so classic and timeless. A little corner retreat in the bedroom to read a book with a cup of tea. The tiniest of powder rooms with large-scale floral wallpaper and a custom marble sink. Archways in bathrooms – in one case with a different colour tile on the outside wall. One with diagonally laid checkered marble floor (a fav of mine). A retro vibing laundry room with black and white checkered tile floor. Love every bit of each of these spaces.

Country cottage renewal

Posted on Tue, 22 Jul 2025 by midcenturyjo

Nestled in tranquil woodland this Henley cottage has been sensitively reimagined and restored by Vaughan to honour its heritage while embracing modern comfort. Inspired by the surrounding British countryside, the interiors celebrate original features, painstakingly preserved and reimagined with a light, playful touch. Natural materials and a soft palette enhance the cottage’s warmth and charm, creating a timeless yet evolving home. Though thoroughly updated, it remains deeply rooted in its setting, a peaceful retreat for both the rhythm of daily life and the quiet of the weekend

Craftsman home reimagined

Posted on Wed, 16 Jul 2025 by midcenturyjo

Bright Designlab transformed this 1912 Craftsman home in Portland’s Ladd’s Addition by rethinking its layout and character. The kitchen now anchors the home, replacing the former living room to improve flow and functionality. Delicate design touches, arched niches, soft tones and floral motifs, contrast the sturdy architecture. Original details like leaded glass and built-ins were preserved while custom elements add charm and practicality. The result is a graceful, modern update that honours the home’s historic soul.
