A Mid-Century Modern Residential Remodel

Location: Point Loma, San Diego

This elegant Point Loma residence, untouched since the mid-70s, underwent a transformative remodel under the expert guidance of the Southcoast Design Group. Our team re-imagined the space, blending mid-century modern charm with contemporary sophistication to create a home that is both timeless and modern.

Design Approach

The talented design team at Southcoast Design Group began by moving walls and incorporating extensive glass elements to enhance natural light and openness. A cohesive color and finish palette was meticulously selected, ensuring a design that would remain stylish and adaptable for years to come. The primary focus areas were the kitchen, entry foyer with a stunning floating staircase, and luxurious primary bath, each redesigned to reflect a harmonious balance of form and function.

Primary Bath Renovation

Staying true to the home’s mid-century modern roots, we retained the original pitched roof, multiple skylights, and the unique glass block of the shower’s external wall. These elements were seamlessly integrated into our new design, which combines today’s most glamorous and modern touches with cutting-edge technology for ultimate functionality and beauty.

The spa-inspired primary bath was designed to meet the following homeowner requests:

  1. Deep Storage Solutions:
    Each vanity features deep storage drawers with integrated power outlets, perfect for bathroom appliances and daily-use items.
  2. Architectural Integrity:
    We maintained the original framework of the space, including the unusual ceiling pitch and the distinctive glass block shower facade.
  3. Glamorous Enhancements:
    We added touches of glamour to elevate the space from everyday luxury to an impressive showpiece, capable of selling the home with just a few snapshots. However, the homeowners were so enamored with the result that they chose to stay and enjoy their newly transformed space rather than listing it on the market.

This project exemplifies our commitment to maintaining architectural integrity while introducing modern enhancements. The Sefton Place remodel stands as a testament to the beauty of thoughtful design and the lasting impact of a well-executed vision.
