Behind the scenes
Follow along for a behind the scenes look as we tackle renovation projects from start to finish. We'll be sharing every step of the way, from design inspiration and planning, to construction, sourcing, and styling. Our goal is to chronicle our projects and share ideas and information that others might find helpful.
Modernizing the kitchen at a #dwelloctoberstudio mid-century modern fixer-upper

A divided entry at a #dwelloctoberstudio mid-century modern fixer-upper
Although this one level house looked small from the exterior, it was deceivingly large on the inside, with spacious rooms and a great floor plan. The front door opened into the living room and featured a floor to ceiling divider that created a separate entry area with a coat closet.

Simple #dwelloctoberstudio '90s builder grade house cosmetic updates
As part of this #dwelloctoberstudio '90s builder grade transformation, we also updated the second floor of the home. The changes upstairs were mostly cosmetic and included new windows and doors, new white oak hardwood flooring, new trim with a clean, modern profile, and fresh white paint. It's amazing how something as simple as switching out door hardware can have such a dramatic impact on modernizing the look and feel of a home!
