FRESH & MODERN
An Austin, Texas, kitchen and accompanying living spaces make for a mid mod design that ’s equal parts classic and contemporary.

design MUST-HAVES:
● Natural light
● Durability
● Open flow
ONCE IN DISREPAIR, THE KITCHEN WAS REDESIGNED WITH TERRAZZO FLOORING, CUSTOM CABINETRY, A TILE BACKSPLASH AND AN EXPANSIVE WINDOW THAT NOW BRINGS LIGHT INTO THE ROOM.
THE MID CENTURY, YET DISTINCTLY CURRENT, KITCHEN IS A STUDY IN STRIKING MATERIALS. WITH A MOSAIC TILE BACKSPLASH FROM BEDROSIANS TILE & STONE, AND A FIRE-BRUSHED ABSOLUTE BLACK GRANITE COUNTERTOP, THE HUES WORK TOGETHER SEAMLESSLY.
Some mid century homes have hardly changed at all since they were first constructed over six decades ago. Lovingly cared for throughout the years, new homeowners find themselves needing to make barely any renovations at all.
