Kicking off RECORD's renovation and restoration–focused Featured Houses series is a mid-century house in suburban Cleveland meticulously restored and updated as a seasonal residence by its architect owner.
RECORD showcases four Kitchen & Bath projects that stand apart through their deft navigation of limited footprints and use of thoughtful and utilitarian materials.
Sprawling and low-slung, the Thorne Residence is replete with nods to the region’s history—from hot-dip galvanized steel to sooty charred-wood cladding.
The owners of this single-story Floridian residence expressed a desire for “clean lines, solid lighting, traditional shapes, and the idea of the outside folding into the landscape.”
Located two hours northwest of Santiago, this beachside retreat features timber cladding and a daylight-flooded interior thanks to expansive panes of glass on the structure's gable end.
