We took cues from mid-century modern design to set the framework for easy, breezy interiors that cater to their clients’ alfresco inclinations. Throughout sunlit spaces, cedar-clad ceilings reign above rooms wrapped in smooth walnut paneling and streamlined built-ins that speak to the straightforward style of the bygone era. To counter the austerity of the clean lines and sparse structural details, we slathered walls with pigment-tinted Venetian plaster for softness and incorporated statement-making features made from natural stone for texture and depth. In the main living areas, tumbled Mexican limestone floors convey a sense of age while the muted earth tones of the Fior Di Pesco marble island and range wall wash the kitchen in warmth and hide a myriad of sins.
