Zionsville Mid-Century

A bath for the Morton’s in their late mid-century home. We reimagined this space while re-purposing many original elements and bringing in new materials, classic to mid-century architecture.

In our initial walk through with Morgan and Dan, it was clear that they were passionate about honoring the history of the home and that they wanted to lean into a design that had permanence v newness. They had even sat down with the woman who grew up in this house, built by her father. The work we get to do becomes most exciting when people start a project with such care and intentionality.

This project was equal part craft as it was build; so much of what you see was hand-crafted in the shop and fitted on-site. Repurposing the original mermaid shower doors into art, sourcing recycled material for the vanity top and shower niche, creating those mid-century block lines with casework and a hidden track for the shower curtain: the list goes on. Sourcing local, fabricating local, and prioritizing the ‘what if we…’.

Morgan and Dan were incredible (!) to work with on this one. Morgan especially was such a creative collaborator throughout. Both of them were equally excited about pushing craft, design, and repurpose as much as we were. A dream, really!

And to cap off these photos, here is where this project started.
