At Home

For our own 1950s home in Charlotte, we were determined to honor midcentury heritage with an updated color palette and a layout that works for modern living. When we bought the home, I was pregnant with my first child and the home was frozen in the 1970s, so everyone thought we would treat it as a teardown. Instead, we looked to the California modernism of Richard Neutra and Joseph Eichler for inspiration as we reconfigured rooms all with a mind to letting the outdoors in through our beloved large-scale windows. Then, we layered in saturated colors, graphic accents, and our wide-reaching, ever-growing collection of art. Now, it’s the perfect setting for quiet family time and formal entertaining.
