Best of Mid Mod Remodel: The Style Guide You Need

This week, I've been talking about style guides inside the Ready to Remodel program. On our architect office hours call on Monday, I talked this cohort of homeowners through the value of distilling your personal style. Everyone starts with a fuzzy big picture concept like time capsule cute versus mid-mod contemporary, and then we gather ideas through the process of collecting design inspiration from Pinterest, Instagram, magazines, and the real world. Talking to the Ready to Remodel community about this made me remember that I needed to tell you about it too! The rest of today's episode is a throwback to season four of Mid Mod Remodel. I recorded this nearly exactly two years ago and it is just as true today as it was then.
