Colorful Home Makeover: Mid-Century Meets Maximalism
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 5 ธ.ค. 2021
- When two mid-century architecture-loving homeowners bought this suburban home, they knew they wanted to bring it back to its former glory. Working closely with builder BenHomes, creative minds Raymond Girard and Laird Kay gave this dated home a new life, modern upgrades (a sleek green kitchen!) and a colorful maximalist edge that fits their lifestyle. From lego sculptures to aviation paraphernalia, this stunning collectors' can only be described as FUN!

Echoing the majority of comments here: this was a great house with fun homeowners. Terrific video with a story! More of this please!
What a sweet couple, very respectful of each other's contribution to the discussion about the house. It looks a very warm, welcoming yet well curated home.
I love them, as an Architect my self I think they did an amazing job with this house, it feels fresh but it has a lots of character and definitely seems like it belongs to them. As they said sometimes mid century modern houses now days feel like cutouts, they don't have a soul because they were trying to achieve a certain look, this house feels like it belongs to them.
This home is just as fun as its owners! It’s wonderful when a “designed” home can be as true to the personality of the owners as this one is. It’s always been my fear that a designer wouldn’t quite “get” me, you know. For one thing, I’m in total agreement with the gentleman that said he wasn’t into so many white spaces. I’m in love with the color of the curtains!
We had gold curtains in our home in Dallas when I was a child; 1960's. Not certain what the pop pallete was like back then.
@@sarahelizabeth7638 My mother had JC Penney make custom gold velvet curtains for our house when I was 7-8, in the mid ‘60s. I thought they were the most beautiful things! That was in Little Rock, Arkansas.
It wouldn't surprise me if my mother ordered from pennies also. I think she liked JCPenney back then.
@@sarahelizabeth7638 That’s neat. We’re from the same area of the country, basically.
@@rneustel388 cool.
House and home team, thank you for this video. It's great when the videos are longer and more detailed! I love listening to people's life stories and how they connect to their houses
I like it when the homeowners show their interests and collections.
I love it when I like the collections.
Great place!
This house was a BREATH of fresh air! What a stunning, personal, joyous representation of their individual unapologetic personalities without constant “resale” mindset. Stunning. What I wouldn’t have given to have my grandmothers home bought by people who appreciated history and story of a home instead of the people who bought it and made the entire home white with marble floors, kitchen and bathrooms.Soulesss.
This place succeeds more so than the typical H&H episode due to their use of vintage. A house won’t have a soul if everything is new. Great job you two!
So glad to see homeowners with actual taste and personalized styles! Not just painting everything black and gold and white and making everything modern.
Such a sweet relationship between those two!
Those amber velvet drapes make my heart sing.
BEST video H&H has ever done!!!! Wow. These men have true style. Thank you so much for sharing your home with us. H&H please, please do more content like this.
Wow, you can literally feel the personality everywhere! Amazing inspo, thank you! ❤
I think sign of a truly great renovation is that it looks like "this is how is should have been designed all along". Just the perfect balance of new and well-loved pieces.
We have a Samsung Frame TV and I love that when it's "off" there's not a big black slab on the wall.
ok wow. So much inspiration to be found here! I love the kitchen, the orange, the sage, the bookshelves! not to mention the owners. I can't wait to show this to my 11 yo son who loves lego, airplanes and home design! what a fun and creative home.
I love this and love that they used so many pre-loved things and found things, even out of the garbage.
That's the most functional home book wall I've ever seen. No sculptures or plants taking up book space, different spaces for magazines and different sizes of books, wonderful.
I’ve watched this video so many times, and it keeps getting better. What a unique, personal style that pays homage to the best of mid-century design without being themey. So much character. Love the homeowners too.
I didn’t realize until this moment that these two gems are exactly who my husband and I are unintentionally inspiring to be… Love this so much!!
Chefs kiss to that Lego room
I would buy that house in a HEARTBEAT! It's perfect.
Easily my favorite. I was in love when I saw mid century 😍
I love this so much. A big nod to mid century without being cliche. And I love that you’ve embraced a split level. And OMG, keeping the paneling was EVERYTHING!!!
Articulate, talented, fun and interesting owners! Love this house, wish we could have seen the pool area, appreciate how they value and display their books (as opposed to the sad trend of hiding the spines). I covet the studio and all that Lego to play with and the airplane studio, too. Wow! More like this please!
Those office spaces are to die for!!!
Love this home and the homeowners are awesome. They have a great eye for design and appreciation for the footprint of the house. I love how they have embraced the paneling, rug and took it to the next level. Classic and playful.
I love mid century furnitures and teak. This home is so tastefully done, clean and not overdone.I love how the kitchen is like a jewel from the living room. Just beautiful.
A beautiful, functional home concept that proves - minimalism doesn't need to be Japanese, Scandinavian, very (almost) white, and full of empty space, with no books (almost, lol) and basically zero decors.
An exceptional result of the owners/designers' cooperation.
Well done; enjoy your house, guys!
LOVED THIS!!! There’s not much mid century mixed with maximalist style. So beautiful.
Wow...what a way to update and predate at the same time. When they said southern Ontario I thought it could be my own home town, so many of these split levels built when I was a kid. They've brought such life to this one!
I love this house, so much color and character!
This is certainly my cup-a-tea. I have styled my new home very similar to this absolutely beautiful Mid-Century modern and I absolutely love it. WOW! what a treat this home is and yes, Raymond Girard and Laird Kay have created heaven that they can certainly relate too ... Love Love Love
Love this house! And this couple. Great taste but not stuffy and a true appreciation of everything they love
this is reeky beautiful! I have never seen a home which is so customised in H&H where it's matches and compliments the couple in such an extraordinary way. its not a house for anyone. its a home for them
This is perfect Mid Century Modern mixed with contemporary living. I love all their choices, especially the library in the main living room . Just gorgeous.
This is one of the few interior designs that actually makes orange look good! Orangey hues aren't easy to work with but these guys made it work. Nice!
LOVE the house! And the owners are so lovely :)
I adored this. Didn't think I'd see fellow mid century avid maximalists on this channel. Their house is fire
The modern 1970's aesthetic. ❤️
What a wonderful segment. Two very interesting people. Loved hearing their take on the design while embracing their passions. So much fun to listen to. thanks H&H.
Lego room is the show stopper!!
I like how they unapologetically embrace their belongings. 🙂
I love what they did with this house! I love the bookcase, especially the magazine shelves. Beautiful!
This was fascinating in the best way possible! I absolutely loved how they added their personal touch to the entire home, and took a cookie cutter style house that is everywhere, and made it unique and beautiful and stylish and so full of life and color! Kudos to the homeowners and builders and design influences that brought this all together...it is really magnificent.
This house is so cool! I love the studios / offices and LOVE that smoking room! It’s just the perfect amount of MCM to avoid being kitschy! Well done!
Whoa. Coolest lego sculptures.
The mossy cabinets 😍 gorgeous
The transportation theme 🪄
Absolutely love everything about the house.
Love these two 'transport geeks' such a fun couple with excellent style.
I love this home with its individual rooms and WALLS. It's so refreshing to see a kitchen that has not had the walls torn down. I agree with Raymond Girard about the white walls in the bedroom, but the room does soften when those gorgeous curtains are drawn. @10:28, love that little collection of buses and actually rode some of those routes growing up in London (UK) where I still live.
The house is gorgeous! It just kills me that they’re the literal stereotype of a HGTV couple.
“Hi! I’m a photographer, my husband is a Lego sculptor and we have a budget of $895,000” (made the price up).
How did they afford this!?
The house has a strong, warm and welcoming personality! Lovely !
This house is amazing!
Elevated nerdery .. ha! Perfect!
wow, would i LOVE to go to a party hosted by these two in their amazing home. so much inspo. just finished watching, and i'm going to watch it again now!!!
Love the couple!!!
What an interesting home with such a great color scheme. Really, really the gorgeous dining room table!
'Elevated nerdery'. That's my design aesthetic nailed!
I'm glad to see more colour in design lately
The dream home. I’d live in this house any day.
One of the best house is I've ever seen love their collections Longford mid-century love their taste love the bank air every room is amazing congratulations you great men and you got great taste
I love how this house looks. You all did an amazing job.
Love the whole vibe of this house!
Absolutely gorgeous in every way.
Gorgeous
I've watched this video so many times, the home is just so charming and tells such a story about the couple and their lives together, and their own interests individually.
Absolutely stunning. In love with everything. It’s like my brain was transferred into their home and they get to live in it. Plus, they are both very handsome. SOOOO……..JEALOUS 😬
Wonderful home and interview. It’s so impressive to me that the exterior in particular has such a natural mid century feel now considering what it was before. Just stunning.
My gosh, this home is stunning!
Love love love all those green plants...large scale pots and large scale plants... I am SO copying this idea!
I love this! I love their life together, and they have such style and taste. I want to explore that house properly. Bet they throw exceptional parties 🍸
Wonderful, absolutely wonderful. Our homes should reflect what we love. Great design to show case all of that and more.
Love every inch of this home!
Great way to adapt a space and style to your own needs. The house feels lived in and purposeful.
SO beautiful and inspiring!
Such a fun house! Loving everything rebuilt in it!
I love the layering of the contrasting hide rugs!
'This' is exactly what I look forward to seeing.. they're super naturals hosts!!!
Such a fun home!! Stunning
love the house, the owners, and the sculptures!
Gorgeous!
FINALLY COLOR. GREAT JOB GUYS!!!!!
If I see one more black and white house I’ll scream
Love this! The transit touches throughout make it extra special.
Favourite bit: where Raymond (almost...) let Laird finish a sentence...
Absolutely lovely.
Beautiful ❤
