A renovated home in Texas with sophisticated yet family-friendly interiors

modern-entry

This beautiful ranch home was completely renovated for a family of six by Urbanology Design, located in Bent Tree, a neighborhood in Dallas, Texas. The original home had a wonderful layout yet the owners needed assistance with making their home live more comfortably for their active family. Enlisting the help of a designer, their main request was function and comfort.

They did not want formal living spaces and they admired the farmhouse and rustic elements. The designer sought ways to integrate these details in a way that would be fresh and modern. Interior spaces were given a sophisticated and personalized style, layering in textures with a balance of black and white along with a contrast of sharp lines and big curves. Continue below to see the rest of this home which includes a beautifully designed homeschool classroom above the garage!

The project entailed a makeover of the main living spaces with the owner’s four young children at the forefront of the design process. An important part of the redesign included transforming a space over the garage into a homeschool area. A bench was added to the home’s front entryway as a place to take off and put on shoes.

The goal of this project was to completely furnish the living spaces with comfortable yet chic furnishings. Incorporate functional and stylish built-ins along with additional architectural details. Additionally, the living spaces needed to suit both the family’s lifestyle and personal style.

What We Love: This wonderful renovated home in Texas is simple yet sophisticated while still being kid-friendly. You can see from the design choices, that the focus is on family, not on a TV in the main living space (instead the TV was placed in the homeschooling room above the garage). Their school space was designed to perfection with everything one could possibly need. We are also loving all of the cozy reading nooks!

transitional-atrium

Tucked between the family room and the kitchen is this luminous atrium space that overlooks the backyard. Used as a reading nook, a unique shelving unit was custom designed for this space, comprised of white oak with a black accent. Its stepped composition resembles Japanese tansu cabinets.

Above: The kitchen was revitalized, including new quartz countertops, a custom plaster hood, and removing some of the upper cabinets to create an airier feel with an open shelf. The remaining cabinets were painted black — Greenblack SW 6994 – Sherwin-Williams. V-groove paneling brings character to the wall from the shelf up to the ceiling, a nod to farmhouse style.
