This is a remodel of a “Mid-Century Modern” home. The clients wanted to preserve some of the more successful features of the original design. The floor plan generally didn’t work well and the flow was broken up. Our aim was to remove walls, improve the flow and preserve the good components that worked. We removed the walls between the dining room and the entry, increasing the flow and transparency to the Kitchen. We designed a wider opening into the kitchen and a secondary door that could be closed off if need be, allowing the spaces to feel open and flow with each other but still be separate.
