Turning Back Time – A Tale of Two Mad Men – Design & Decor
The Living Room
David and Kevin started remodeling houses with their first home in 1993, a 1911 Arts and Crafts Bungalow in Long Beach, California that had been neglected for 20 years. They were facing an enormous project to make it livable and which they were uncertain about tackling. While stripping out the previous bad remodels, they soon discovered the task at hand was not only doable, but a whole lot of fun. After months of intense and detailed work, they managed to restore their home to its original 1911 glory and were left to marvel at what they had accomplished.A succession of houses followed that required varying degrees of work, a 1913 “true” Arts and Crafts Bungalow, a severely compromised French Farmhouse, and eventually, a brand new modern condominium in West Hollywood. It was while living there that they began buying mid-century modern furniture to adorn the condo with. These pieces became the cornerstones of their current Seattle mid-century house and as you will see, are completely in their element in the new digs.
