Nearly two decades ago now, Susan and her husband put a letter in the mailbox of this eastside home: "If you have any interest in selling, please reach out." But really, who would give up a Flansburgh House? Fast forward to 2020, when the house went on the market! By then it was clear that three children and a busy home design studio couldn't be crammed into this efficient footprint. But what's second best to moving into your dream home? Being asked to redesign the functional core for the family that was. In this classic Flansburgh layout, all the rooms align tidily in a square around a central hall and open air atrium. As such, all the spaces are both connected to one another and also private; and all allow for visual access to the outdoors in two directions—toward the atrium and toward the exterior. All except, in this case, the utilitarian galley kitchen. That space, oft-relegated to second class in midcentury architecture, got the shaft, with narrow doorways on two ends and no good visual access to the atrium or the outside. Who spends time in the kitchen anyway? As is often the case with even the very best midcentury architecture, the kitchen at the Flansburgh House needed to be modernized; appliances and cabinetry have come a long way since 1970, but our culture has evolved too, becoming more casual and open in ways we at SYH believe are here to stay. People (gasp!) do spend time—lots of time!—in their kitchens! Nonetheless, our goal was to make this kitchen look as if it had been designed this way by Earl Flansburgh himself. The house came to us full of bold, bright color. We edited out some of it (along with the walls it was on) but kept and built upon the stunning red, orange and yellow closet doors in the family room adjacent to the kitchen. That pop was balanced by a few colorful midcentury pieces that our clients already owned, and the stunning light and verdant green coming in from both the atrium and the perimeter of the house, not to mention the many skylights. Thus, the rest of the space just needed to quiet down and be a beautiful, if neutral, foil. White terrazzo tile grounds custom plywood and black cabinetry, offset by a half wall that offers both camouflage for the cooking mess and also storage below, hidden behind seamless oak tambour.

Die junge Familie wünschte sich eine neue Küche. Mehrere Jahre lebten sie mit einer Küche, die Sie von den Eltern übernommen hatten. Das war zum Einzug praktisch, denn Sie kamen zurück aus London in die alte Heimat. Nach einigen Jahren konnten Sie die alte Küche nicht mehr sehen und wünschten sich eine schlichte, praktische Küche mit natürlichen Baustoffen. Die L-Position blieb bestehen, aber alles drumherum veränderte sich. Schon alleine die neue Position der Spüle ermöglicht es nun zu zweit besser und entspannter an der Arbeitsfläche zu schnippeln, kochen und zu spülen. Kleiner Eingriff mit großer Wirkung. Die Position des Tisches (der für das Frühstück und den schnellen Snack zwischendurch) wurde ebenso verändert und als Hochtisch ausgeführt. Beruflich arbeiten sie sehr naturnah und wollten auch eine Küche haben, die weitestgehend mit Holz und natürlichen Baustoffen saniert wird. Die Wände und Decke wurden mit Lehm verputzt. Der Boden wurde von diversen Schichten Vinyl und Co befreit und mit einem Linoleum neu belegt. Die Küchenmöbel und wurden aus Dreischichtplatte Fichte gebaut. Die Fronten mit einer Kreidefarbe gestrichen und einem Wachs gegen Spritzwasser und Schmutz geschützt. Die Arbeitsplatte wurde aus Ahorn verleimt und ausschließlich geseift. Auf einen klassischen Fliesenspiegel wurde auch verzichtet. Stattdessen wurde dort ein Lehmspachtel dünn aufgezogen und mit einem Carnubawachs versiegelt. Ja, dass ist alles etwas pflegeintensiver. Funktioniert im Alltag aber problemlos. "Wir wissen es zu schätzen, dass uns natürliche Materialien umgeben und pflegen unsere Küche gerne. Wir fühlen uns rundum wohl! berichten die beiden Bauherren. Es gibt nicht nur geschlossene Hochschränke, sondern einige offene Regale. Der Zugriff zu den Dingen des täglichen Bedarfs geht einfach schneller und es belebt die Küche.

March 2020 marked the launch of LIVDEN, a curated line of innovative decorative tiles made from 60-100% recycled materials. In the months leading up to our launch, we were approached by Palm Springs design firm, Juniper House, for a collaboration on one of the featured homes of 2020 Modernism Week, the Mesa Modern. The LUNA series in the Medallion color on 12x12 Crystallized Terrazzo tile was featured as the main kitchen's backsplash. The LUNA was paired with matte black cabinetry, brass hardware, and custom mid-century lighting installations. The main kitchen was packed with color, texture and modern design elements.

This Denver ranch house was a traditional, 8’ ceiling ranch home when I first met my clients. With the help of an architect and a builder with an eye for detail, we completely transformed it into a Mid-Century Modern fantasy. Photos by sara yoder

We bumped out the kitchen and put in a wall of windows to the expansive view. We designed a wall to both create an entry nook, and house the refrigerator and upper cabinets. A drywall enclosure was designed to give the range balance and become the focal point of the kitchen. The island was custom-wrapped in stainless steel and a cantilevered oval high eating bar was installed to again take advantage of views. We specified layers of fun lighting.
