New doors and windows and a simplified palette lend the master bedroom—which retains the lines of the original mid-century modern house—a calm, unfussy elegance.
This classic mid-century modern home in Lakewood, Washington, had great "bones" that had been compromised by subsequent remodels.

DeForest Architects opened up walls, updated finishes, and created a kitchen centered around what the residents call "the mother of all islands."
