Have any Interior Design resources re: 50s era, retro, etc.?
I'm purchasing a house that was built in the 50s. It had one owner and is all orginial. Slate roof, brick exterior. The kitchen has pink metal cabs and orginial Chambers range and oven. The bathrooms have the original colorful 50s tile. I'd like to update the windows, lighting, appliances, etc. yet maintain the 50s vibe. Any resources or ideas would be appreciated.
You are lucky because mid-century modern has become hip again and there are a lot of manufacturers who are replicating designs in reproductions for lighting, hardware, furniture, etc. If you seek the genuine articles, however, check with the architectural salvagers in your area. Check what they have in inventory, but also have them take note of what you are looking for because they will contact you if and as they get it in. A lot of people are rennovating 50's bathrooms and kitchens and recycling the old components. Even companies like Rennovation Hardware have lines that come straight out of Lucy and Ricky's home!
