A 1940's bungalow with original wood floors and arched doorways plays nicely with bold pattern and pops of jewel toned fabric and art. Plants act as decor in this minimalist space, highlighting high quality wood furniture pieces in a mid-century style and a colorful reading nook featuring a second-hand painting and Nelson bubble sconce. Thrifted pieces mix with handmade wood cabinetry and seating for an eclectic and exciting mic that feels casual, cool and comfortable.

As you can see, I sprinkled succulents throughout the home. Succulents are great because they are easy to maintain and have a nice casual and fresh vibe.

For this project we manufactured custom length corten steel planters to fit specific perimeter dimensions of the roof deck. The planters are 36 inches high by 24 inches wide and approximately 44 inches long. The planters sit directly on the wood decking. Also the planters are raised of the decking by one inch to allow for irrigation tubing to be routed under the metal planter box. Photography by Shawn Records
