Our clients’ goals for this custom home was to incorporate their passion for mid-century design and detailing, embrace the natural site and Lowcountry views, and create an accessible dwelling to age-in-place.
Mid-century architecture, which flourished approximately between the 1940s and 1960s, is characterized by its integration of nature, open floor plans, and a focus on simplicity and functionality. This architectural style is often associated with prominent figures such as Frank Lloyd Wright and Richard Neutra, who emphasized clean lines, organic materials, and large glass windows that blur the boundaries between indoor and outdoor spaces. The design principles reflect a modernist approach, prioritizing form and function over ornamental elements. Mid-century architecture continues to influence contemporary design, celebrated for its timeless appeal and emphasis on connectivity with the surrounding environment.
