A colorful mid-century modern weekend getaway

The colorful weekend home was extensively renovated in rural Orange County, New York. A couple, who live in Chelsea during the week, purchased the 1960s house with a midcentury feel for $285,000. Spacious enough for entertaining, the home is comprised of 3,000 square feet of living space and four bedrooms the home appears as a real life representation of one of the ownerโ€™s website, โ€˜Fab.comโ€™. Bradford Shellhammer drew inspiration from spending days surrounded by home furnishings, so naturally he carefully planned arrangements of furnishings in eye-popping hues, all selected from his company.

The home needed a complete renovation, so a contractor was hired to add two bathrooms, for a total of four, and transformed an unfinished basement into a games room, and reconfigured bedrooms as well as the main staircase, all in just 10 weeks. The homeownerโ€™s decided to preserve the rosewood cabinets in the kitchen and the colored porcelain fixtures in the bathrooms, and took a more targeted approach to updates. The exterior facade of the home was also updated, with a total of around $200,000 spent on the renovations. Via
