Mid Century Modern Garden Entry. The decomposed granite and concrete path lined with soft grasses creates a welcoming scene.


This existing sleeping porch was reworked into a stunning Mid Century bathroom complete with geometric shapes that add interest and texture. Rich woods add warmth to the black and white tiles. Wood tile was installed on the shower walls and pick up on the wood vanity and Asian-inspired custom built armoire.

The cantilevered living room of this incredible mid century modern home still features the original wood wall paneling and brick floors. We were so fortunate to have these amazing original features to work with. Our design team brought in a new modern light fixture, MCM furnishings, lamps and accessories. We utilized the client's existing rug and pulled our room's inspiration colors from it. Bright citron yellow accents add a punch of color to the room. The surrounding built-in bookcases are also original to the room.


Mid-century modern double front doors, carved with geometric shapes and accented with green mailbox and custom doormat. Paint is by Farrow and Ball and the mailbox is from Schoolhouse lighting and fixtures.


The shape of the angled porch-roof, sets the tone for a truly modern entryway. This protective covering makes a dramatic statement, as it hovers over the front door. The blue-stone terrace conveys even more interest, as it gradually moves upward, morphing into steps, until it reaches the porch.
Porch Detail
The multicolored tan stone, used for the risers and retaining walls, is proportionally carried around the base of the house. Horizontal sustainable-fiber cement board replaces the original vertical wood siding, and widens the appearance of the facade. The color scheme — blue-grey siding, cherry-wood door and roof underside, and varied shades of tan and blue stone — is complimented by the crisp-contrasting black accents of the thin-round metal columns, railing, window sashes, and the roof fascia board and gutters.
This project is a stunning example of an exterior, that is both asymmetrical and symmetrical. Prior to the renovation, the house had a bland 1970s exterior. Now, it is interesting, unique, and inviting.

Agoura Hills mid century bathroom remodel for small townhouse bathroom.


This is a cozy sitting area in a master bedroom. The accent wall is decorated with a cluster of family photos, the idea being that as the famly grows the gallery wall will grow with favorite memories.


Klopf Architecture and Outer space Landscape Architects designed a new warm, modern, open, indoor-outdoor home in Los Altos, California. Inspired by mid-century modern homes but looking for something completely new and custom, the owners, a couple with two children, bought an older ranch style home with the intention of replacing it.
Created on a grid, the house is designed to be at rest with differentiated spaces for activities; living, playing, cooking, dining and a piano space. The low-sloping gable roof over the great room brings a grand feeling to the space. The clerestory windows at the high sloping roof make the grand space light and airy.
Upon entering the house, an open atrium entry in the middle of the house provides light and nature to the great room. The Heath tile wall at the back of the atrium blocks direct view of the rear yard from the entry door for privacy.
The bedrooms, bathrooms, play room and the sitting room are under flat wing-like roofs that balance on either side of the low sloping gable roof of the main space. Large sliding glass panels and pocketing glass doors foster openness to the front and back yards. In the front there is a fenced-in play space connected to the play room, creating an indoor-outdoor play space that could change in use over the years. The play room can also be closed off from the great room with a large pocketing door. In the rear, everything opens up to a deck overlooking a pool where the family can come together outdoors.
Wood siding travels from exterior to interior, accentuating the indoor-outdoor nature of the house. Where the exterior siding doesn’t come inside, a palette of white oak floors, white walls, walnut cabinetry, and dark window frames ties all the spaces together to create a uniform feeling and flow throughout the house. The custom cabinetry matches the minimal joinery of the rest of the house, a trim-less, minimal appearance. Wood siding was mitered in the corners, including where siding meets the interior drywall. Wall materials were held up off the floor with a minimal reveal. This tight detailing gives a sense of cleanliness to the house.
The garage door of the house is completely flush and of the same material as the garage wall, de-emphasizing the garage door and making the street presentation of the house kinder to the neighborhood.
The house is akin to a custom, modern-day Eichler home in many ways. Inspired by mid-century modern homes with today’s materials, approaches, standards, and technologies. The goals were to create an indoor-outdoor home that was energy-efficient, light and flexible for young children to grow. This 3,000 square foot, 3 bedroom, 2.5 bathroom new house is located in Los Altos in the heart of the Silicon Valley.

When we started designing our client's primary bathroom renovation, they were drawn to a mid-century aesthetic highlighted by bold tropical patterns and vibrant colors. The pairing of black and white penny tiles with emerald green subway tiles felt like a perfect match. We opted for jet black grout for the penny tiles and urbane bronze grout for the green tiles, creating a stunning contrast. The subway tiles were arranged in a vertical stack, adding a modern twist to this vintage-inspired look. The seamless black and white flooring extends throughout the space, including inside and outside the shower area. We replaced the outdated built-in vanities with stylish mid-century free-standing options in a rich walnut finish, complete with modern features like integrated 120V outlets with USB ports and removable drawer organizers. A generous 67" black and white free-standing tub enhances the design, accompanied by a tub filler and a sputnik-style chandelier in champagne bronze tones that radiate elegance and sophistication. The exquisite tropical wallpaper unifies the space; not only does it serve as a stunning design element, but its vinyl material is also robust enough to withstand the bathroom's humid conditions. It has been strategically placed from floor to ceiling behind each vanity and in the toilet room. The vanity mirrors and lighting further enhance the cohesive design. A ribbon of bronze-finished steel frames a floating mirror, secured by clips with a brass finish. The rich champagne bronze sconces feature hand-blown, white seeded glass shaped like closed blooms. This bathroom boasts a breathtaking view of the golf course, and to ensure privacy, we installed a battery-operated lined woven shade in walnut, complementing the color of the vanities.
