Architect Alexander White took this 1920's tenant house modern while staying true to its roots. He left the house's last century period features of large parade doors, soaring ceilings and eye-catching architectural details to anchor the rooms; while using a bold modern decor, with brilliant white walls and vivid pops of color, to bring each vibrantly to life in the most animated way. The renovated, fully equipped, kitchen is the work of Italian designer Ged Cucine. He kept the space subdued yet open, adding only a small dinette set off to one side. The bedrooms are simple and understated with minimal furnishings, but all feature one daring pop of color or bold patterned accent. This classic, and now hip, Â tenant house marries the best of two periods and two styles, for a vintage modern look we love.
Low profile file furnishings work well in the home's living space with its low hanging, sloped ceilings. Flowers in a glass vase echo the springtime color palette of the accent pillows in the background.
A niched eyebrow window adds architectural interest to the expansive white wall behind sofa and dining table.
The eat-in kitchen offers an intimate space to eat breakfast or chat over a cup of coffee. The stark black and white decor is warmed by honey-toned floors.
The entry acts as a mudroom for keeping coats, shoes and galoshes close at hand. The multi-colored coat rack is both fun and practical.
This child's room offers plenty of space to roam and play and a cool red teepee to hide out in.
This understated bedroom gets a punch of color and pattern from a chaotic modern papered wall.
