Aside from all the work we are going to have to do to this place…
it really is worth it.
Snapped this last night after we ran outside to escape the mold spores!
THE PROJECT
-before-
THE FLOORPLAN
-before-
(the only thing we’ve changed is the basic layout of the kitchen)
WHO ARE THESE PEOPLE?!
Steve – Writes commercials, plays drums and tennis (often with vintage rackets), and digs MCM style.
Haley – Is an amazing graphic designer and lady-boss, is developing an obsession with travel, puts up with noisy band practices, and also digs MCM style.
Steve was born in SoCal, raised in NorCal and has lived in the Great Pacific Northwest for many many years. Haley was born and raised nearby in NE Portland.
Together they’re attempting the seemingly impossible; to bring this great house back to its MCM Grandeur and raise two nutty kids (who are now adults!) …and not drive each other crazy in the process!
Life is kooky, but always a fun adventure!
PLAN B… THE TRAILER
Just in case the whole home restoration thing doesn’t work out! We have a ’56 Airstream Safari that we’re restoring in our spare time. 🙂
Check out our trailer adventures HERE.
Steve and Haley: I found your blog because the Oregonian had some information about a tour of Rummer homes. My husband and I were the second owners of your home. We purchased it in 1979 and sold it in 1990. I am just amazed at how you have remodeled it. It was so fun looking at the pictures. You have done a beautiful job.
