The HunterManchmal muss es eben Gelb sein. Da können wir dann auch nichts machen.
In diesem Fall haben wir es mit einem Geschirrschrank zu tun. Man kann selbstverständlich auch Bücher, Tischtücher, Vasen oder Socken darin aufbewahren, also nennen wir das gute Stück doch ganz neutral Highboard. Schlank und langbeinig steht es da und strahlt uns an. Eine wahre Erscheinung.
Kurz: wir haben dem Korpus dieses hochwertig gearbeiteten Schranks aus den 60er Jahren (WK 465) einen neuen Anstrich verpasst und die Türen so gelassen, wie sie sind. Weil es uns so gefällt –Teakholz und Gelb geben ein schönes Paar ab. Die Türen sind abschließbar; dahinter befindet sich ein geräumiges Fach mit drei flexiblen Einlegeböden.
Sehr guter Zustand mit leichten Gebrauchsspuren.
Das Highboard muss unbedingt an der Wand befestigt werden; für entsprechende Bohrungen in der Rückwand ist gesorgt.
Maße: Breite 100cm, Tiefe 33cm, Höhe 176,5cm.
The Hunter – Select Vintage Goods
Catherine Henderson InteriorsThe main bedroom I felt was an opportunity for some soft glamorous textures to balance all the hard surfaces in the rest of the home and to create a link to the small oriental style courtyard behind the curtains.
Teal velvet curtains lit from above, gold patterned wall paper, a slightly rough woven headboard, smooth timber and plush carpet also in teal - it was all about texture and context.
UserThis kitchen had been very dark and dingy. Because it was a rental, we couldn't get too fancy. I spruced up the existing cabinets with some very yellow paint, used a lighter yellow on the walls, found some vintage tiles and curtains, and had the laminate countertop tiled over.

Carolina V. Gentry, RIDTimeless Palm Springs glamour meets modern in Pulp Design Studios' bathroom design created for the DXV Design Panel 2016. The design is one of four created by an elite group of celebrated designers for DXV's national ad campaign. Faced with the challenge of creating a beautiful space from nothing but an empty stage, Beth and Carolina paired mid-century touches with bursts of colors and organic patterns. The result is glamorous with touches of quirky fun -- the definition of splendid living.

Shambhalla InstituteMid Century Home Remodel By Kim Colwell Design with an affiliation with Shambhalla Institute.
Klopf ArchitectureKlopf 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.
