Stuart Silk Architects together with interior design firm Maison Inc., have recently completed the renovation of a mid-century modern house located on a plateau above Coachella Valley, California, that was originally built in the 1960s.
The exterior features brick, stucco, painted steel, and glass, while the walkways are made from poured concrete.

The interiors of the home have been given a fresh update, with the new floor featuring white terrazzo with amber accents that picks up the warmth of the earth tones found in the landscape surrounding the house.

The home has walls of glass that open to reveal outdoor seating areas with pergolas.

Pastel yellow wallpaper in the kitchen complements the dining chairs, and adds a pop of color to the interior.

Outside, the rear of the house opens to a large yard, with a lawn, a swimming pool, and numerous outdoor living areas.

One of those outdoor living areas incorporates a fireplace into the architecture of the house, while a built-in barbecue sits on the edge of the landscaped garden.

Heading inside, there’s a home office with a desk that reaches from wall to wall, and a large window perfectly frames the tree views.

In the master bedroom, a wood wall with a shelf provides a backdrop for the bed, while a sliding glass door opens to a private patio.

The private patio has a sculpture and a water feature, that both help to create a calming atmosphere.

In the master bathroom, tall mirrors reflect the light from outside, while delicate sconces reflect the mid-century design of the house.
