A Stunning Midcentury-Modern Ranch Renovation

Atlanta-based Terracotta Design Build transformed a dated ranch into a midcentury-modern beauty. The exterior renovation of the home includes a pop of bright turquoise on the door and natural wood panels on the side of the carport. The team left the front stoop in natural red brick to give relief from all of the white paint of the home.

This ranch in the posh Buckhead neighborhood of Atlanta is a family heirloom inherited by the current homeowners. The couple’s love of the area and the history of the home led them to the decision to renovate the ranch. The Terracotta team were able to deliver everything the couple wanted: larger doors and windows, more closets and to create an open floor plan—all with a modern, glam style.

The design team opened up the kitchen by removing some walls and extending the cabinetry. The pop of blue adds interest in the kitchen. Beautiful Ann Sacks mosaic tile is on the backsplash and extends all the way to the ceiling. The black sconces above the windows add a pop of contrasting color to the primarily white and blue kitchen.

On the opposite side of the kitchen, the team removed the wall that separated the kitchen from the living room. The island extends into the living space, offering a small eating area. The island also provides additional storage including a pantry, hidden microwave and a bookcase to house a collection of the homeowner’s cookbooks.
