Doug’s remodeled mid-century modern kitchen in Finleyville, Pennsylvania proves that great design honors the past while confidently embracing the present. The space feels nostalgic and contemporary at the same time. It respects the history of the home while bringing in fresh personality and functionality.
The star of the kitchen is the Tesselle Ipanema Costa Terrazzo Tile backsplash. The pattern brings rhythm, movement, and playful character to the space, creating a visual focal point that feels joyful and authentic to mid-century design.
Deep, dark cabinetry adds richness and sophistication. Bold yellow accents energize the room and introduce a burst of color that feels both cheerful and refined. Beneath it all, large format terrazzo flooring grounds the space and beautifully ties the material story together.
One of the most meaningful choices Doug made was to preserve original architectural elements. Instead of replacing everything, he carefully combined what was already special with thoughtful updates. The result is a kitchen that feels warm, personal, and truly connected to its history.
The outcome is a perfect blend of mid-century character and modern living. Beautiful. Functional. Personal.
We are honored that Doug selected Tesselle for this transformation.
