The remodel of a California Mid-Century home by Studio Meghan Eisenberg, originally designed and built by Meghan’s grandfather, Donald Park, in 1950, pays homage to its architectural heritage. Inspired by the original design details, the finish palette was playfully updated to revive the home with a warm sensibility. For furnishings, 60’s Ranch House decor was referenced, introducing traditional fabrics and classical silhouettes into the post and beam setting.

Interior designer Mike Moser‘s latest project is a 1950s ranch-style home in LA’s Bel Air. Moser preserved its 1950s spirit while modernizing the layout, creating a space that seamlessly blends past and present. Think rich, layered mid-century modern with a stone, cork and wood materials palette, vast walls of glass to capture the views and an easy indoor outdoor feel.

The Becker Barn is an ongoing project on the Toandos Penninsula in the Hood Canal (Washington). The property was lost by the family in a drunken Poker game by Saul’s Grandfather “Babe” in the 70’s (Saul Becker of Mutuus). The opportunity presented itself in 2020 to purchase the property which was adjacent to the tiny cabin that Saul spent his childhood in. Mutuus partners Saul and Kristen spend most weekends with their children there slowly remodeling, dreaming, and testing their design ideas. They see it as an opportunity to prototype Mutuus Made lighting, try out ideas, dabble in landscape design, harvest oysters, spend time with their family, and entertain friends. The gambrel roofed structure has a commanding presence in the landscape that Saul has known since birth. The Becker’s are a restless bunch and this project keeps them in their happy place, constantly dreaming.
Give me all the rustic, barn-like cabins in the woods. The perfect weekend getaway to escape to.

The Belgian midcentury project by Moore House Design in Rhode Island involved a complete scale design, renovation, and furnishing of a 3,100 sq ft gambrel colonial home. Originally built in the 80s with builder-grade finishes and partial renovations, the home lacked cohesion. The designers introduced a modern European take, aiming to unify the fragmented elements, emphasizing natural materials and local craftsmanship, including tadelakt, fine cabinetry, furniture joinery, hand-forged ironwork and custom upholstery.

L.A. vibes and retro styling, a marriage made in heaven. With its expansive views looking down from the Hollywood Hills, this contemporary meets mid-century home has an emphasis on indoor/outdoor living all with more than a nod to simple, sleek lines and minimal ornamentation.
