Midcentury style might have become a bit of a cliche, but serves here as the inspiration for the space rather than full-on theme. We designed this home for a couple of creative empty nesters — she’s from Holland, a writer and has simple taste, he’s creative, color blind and passionate about architecture. We used a few carefully chosen midcentury pieces as a nod to the stylish era in design history, but wove them into a broader, more modern feel that is largely inspired by Scandinavian design. The resulting full-scale renovation is lovely, bright, and certainly not cliche.
