LED strips tucked into the junction between the gorgeous ceiling beams and the ceiling will wash the beams and ceiling with light and provide a very even illumination. It's not an original Eichler feature, but it is so clean, so unobtrusive, and I feel, totally consistent with the Eichler aesthetic. When my mother decorated our modern panelled house in the early 1960s, she used semi-transparent "pale ash" stain (really very nearly white). It was light and bright, but you could still see the wood grain and original panel design. By using a semi-transparent stain, you'll save yourself a whole lot of sanding and prep work and still remain true to the Eichler style. I can't wait to see how this turns out!
Thank you for sharing your insights! Sound like great ways to maintain the Eichler style!
It would be nice if you could keep it mid-century. Huge project, I can't wait to see the finished product ❤
how about polish cement floors
Totally agree - could even stain the concrete and polish!
Thanks! I'll definitely consider that for the project.
Sleek floor to ceiling windows would look so stunning and add allot of light.
Appreciate the suggestion! Yes, it would bring in a lot of light and could really enhance the space. I'll keep this in mind as I continue with the renovations.
Cool project! I vote for doing some more of the hanging lights like are already there in the kitchen area, and solid hard wood
Thanks! Adding more hanging lights in the kitchen area and using solid hardwood flooring sound like great choices for the project.
Terrazzo floors throughout would look nice and go with the time period of the house. Timeless look.
I appreciate the suggestion!
Elisa! This is maybe the most exciting project you've done. So fascinating. My opinions on your questions:
1. Could you add more windows? A lot of modern homes have high strips of windows along the ceiling. If you could add some of those, it might solve your problem and stay consistent with the modern vibe. You're not trying to be totally true to this style, but rather approximate it, I think. That and lamps would be good. Wood paneling is such a light sucking thing. It is a problem that is best solved by more windows if possible. The other idea I'd suggest is painting all the ceilings white and maybe then painting the beams a darker color for contrast.
2. I vote for hardwood floors. Cork seems like a terrible idea, practically speaking. How do you even CLEAN cork? It seems like a bacterial/filth receptacle to me and would totally turn me off.
3. Getting back to the vast expanses of wood paneling in that darkish honey color, would it be blasphemous to refinish it all to a lighter wood color that wouldn't just suck all the light out of the rooms? It would be spendy, but it might really "fix" your light problem without sacrificing the modern look and feel. I'm thinking that if it were my house, I'd refinish all the paneling to a very pale wood color that matched the hardwood floors and paint the ceilings white. I'd also use as much white as possible in the kitchen: counters, cabinets, backsplash. Then I'd stain the bathroom vanities the same color, if possible, for consistency.
4. The vast and invitingly private backyard calls for all kinds of improvements that the new owners will add, such as a pool, outdoor fireplace, outdoor kitchen, pergola, etc. I think you're right to just lay down sod and fix the fence, repair the concrete. In the front, I'd use a larger rock and plants for that modern look. Maybe bring in a few "big" rocks for interest.
5. When you stage it, use modern furniture if your stager can manage it. I think some oversized, bold paintings and persian rugs would really complete the look. Modern outdoor furniture would be nice, too.
I love this house. I can't wait to see what it looks like when you are finished, and what you make from this flip. Thanks for the update!!

Thanks for your detailed thoughts and suggestions-I'll keep them in mind as I continue with the renovations!
For lighting, I think an indoor led cob spot light will look good the singular ones. For flooring maybe look into terrazzo flooring/ tiles!
A few sconces in the living room would probably help provide extra light and appear style appropriate. If you’re keeping the existing pendants, matching those would create a cohesive aesthetic. If you want even more lighting in the kitchen, under and over cabinet lights would suffice.
Instead of using cork throughout, incorporating a polished terrazzo tile and/or a polished slate would be style appropriate. These tiles would also be better at bouncing the light, brightening much of the rooms. If using the terrazzo or slate, rugs would be great to make the rooms feel a bit more comfortable
Thanks for your insights! I'll take them into account and keep them in mind.
Dont be afraid of wall lighting! It can do wonders for spaces and keeps things unique
Thanks for the suggestion!
For the floors, depending on the cost, refinish the concrete floors by leveling, sanding, polishing, and epoxy them. Or, get porcelain concrete look tiles the largest you can get them and place that as flooring material just like you are doing in the bathrooms. I think that would look great and fall in line with the actual purpose and design of the house originally.
Thanks for the flooring suggestion! I'll take that into account.
I would try to get more of those pendants for lighting and maybe add more of those skylights.....just one will look odd. Wood flooring, look into bamboo. And a waterfall edge on that huge island will be gorgeous. And painting the ceilings white would add so much light.
Thanks for the ideas! All great suggestions to enhance the space.
Love how you cleared the yard! Looking forward to the finish!
Thank you!
Hi Elisa!
I would suggest to add real Terrazzo flooring, I think it goes perfect with the style of the home and has become a popular choice again
For the lighting I would suggest either finding vintage ball pendants like the ones in the kitchen, a big mid century modern chandelier, or singular black cylinder track lighting
Also I think a small Japanese style garden near the entrance would look really nice too!
Good luck :)
Thanks so much for the suggestions! I appreciate the insight and will definitely take that into account.
You can try adding more skylights especially in the living room and bedrooms. Floor to ceiling windows will also be a good alternative in those areas.
I was thinking adding floor to ceiling windows in the bedrooms too but then you would need to pull a permit which adds weeks/months to a project.
@@sktub569 Yes it definitely can! Here in Minnesota the permit process is a lot quicker. Having a good idea on how the city processes and knowing what they look for can definitely speed things up. And of course being on their good side ;)
Appreciate the ideas!
A horizontal slat fence would look good.
I'll take that suggestion into account, thank you.
How about adding more skylights and maybe polished concrete floors? Maybe even terrazo flooring?
Thanks for the suggestion! I'll definitely consider adding more skylights and exploring polished concrete or terrazzo flooring.
Its coming along nicely. I think for me, wood floors would be it. Cork flooring is not cleanable and ends up showing traffic patterns. Solar tubes would be nice to let in more light.
I'll keep your feedback about cork flooring and solar tubes in mind as I make decisions. Thanks for your input!
Pendant lights and/or a chandelier for the living room area would be my choice. Glad you were able to renovate the primary bathroom.
Nice home.
Thank you 😊
Keep the existing globe lights in the kitchen and add the least obtrusive recessed lights to supplement.
Thanks for the suggestion! Sounds like a good way to balance the lighting.
My home looks like this too and has a lot of the original slate flooring. I'm going to do polished concrete / Cemcrete with a light neutral colour resin throughout the home instead.
Thanks for sharing! Your plan for polished concrete with a neutral color resin sounds great.
Terrazzo, polished concrete, white oak, bamboo, or epoxy floors. No cork or linoleum.
Pendant lights to match the kitchen.
Are you willing to do white oak throughout? My parent’s house is midcentury too. They have red oak hardwood floors and birch doors with that same orange finish as on your wood paneling.
Thanks for your ideas! I'm considering various options, including the ones you mentioned, as I continue with the renovations. Stay tuned for the final look!
Recess lighting sand hardwood floors
Thanks for your input!
The globe lights in the kitchen look great in the open space. Maybe try something similar?
Thanks! I'll consider something similar to complement the open space in the kitchen.
This home interior is quite dark, but staging it can brighten it a little more with proper ambience. I'm glad you're trying to remain true to the midcentury design. I know you can brighten it up a bit if you chose to paint the ceilings white, while keeping the walls the natural wood color. A play with contrasts can give the illusion of a brighter and larger space. Of course, also with the addition of actual color with fabrics.
Thanks for your insights! Indeed, painting the ceilings white could help brighten the space while maintaining the natural wood color on the walls.
paint the planks on the ceilings, since the beams are already painted, and the treatment needs to carry through and match on the outside. Painted planks will reflect more light, and were frequently done with that style. Then you would only have to match/coordinate the woodtone from the refinished walls to the new floors, instead of needing to consider a woodtone on the ceiling as well. Since this is a renovation rather than a restoration, anything sensitive to the style will work.. I would add bullet lights on the walls throughout, and could match metal tone to new hardware, and can use coordinating/matching bullet lights on the outside as well. You can also add more bubble lights like the originals you are keeping.
Thanks for the ideas! I'll keep them in mind as I plan the renovation.
❓never heard of cork flooring before, but when I googled, it doesn't sound like the best material. Someone wrote on Reddit that they installed cork flooring and all the cork wore off in the first year and had to be replaced.
Thanks for sharing your findings!
Pendant lights & spot lights were common overhead lighting used in mid-century homes. I've seen track lights in Eichler homes and they look ok. Whatever you choose, I would definitely go w/overhead lighting. Especially in a room that large. Cork flooring fades in the sun, isn't waterproof, and damages easily - especially if there are kids/pets. I would absolutely go w/hardwood.
Thanks for the tips!
Like like like like like like
EYE-klure.
Terazo floors
Thanks for the suggestion!
This house still confuses me maybe because the walls are all the same color needs to be broken up
Thanks for the input! The renovation is still ongoing, so stay tuned for the final results.
I think the paneling in the bedrooms make the rooms darker. I would just dry wall the bedrooms and passages. Strip the beams of the white paint.
killed the original fire place for a sky light ...... Not a fan of the giant island eithier . Its a iconic floor plan for a reason . xoxo
Thanks for your feedback! I appreciate your thoughts on preserving the original features. The renovation is still ongoing, and I'm working on balancing updates with respect for the iconic design.
Solar Tubes instead of skylights.
Thanks for the idea!
@@TransformRealEstate My cousin did it her very dark and gloomy stairwell and one solar tube absolutely floored the space with light. I could not believe the difference.
You should remove all the wood paneling in the room and put drywall instead. Otherwise it’s too dark and outdated look
I'll take that into account, thanks!
