The Binkley

This home was designed as a representation of the Mid-Century Modern lifestyle to attract buyers to a scattered-lot home building program. The exterior elevation combines playful angle rooflines, trapezoidal window shapes, and mixed building textures in a monochromatic color palette to emphasize the historical influences of that notable building style.

The design intent was to capture the open, simple architectural style of a bygone era and align it with the lifestyle preferences of today’s buyers. High ceilings, plentiful light, geometric window shapes and accented industrial ductwork deliver the hipster Mid-Century Modern style. The plan is designed into 3 wings: The center core is the public dwelling space; the left wing is the master suite tucked behind the garage, and the right wing is the semi-quiet play/flex room and added bedrooms. The single-car garage reflects a modern take on efficiency, protecting the environment, and minimizing “stuff,” and recognizes the ride-sharing trend.
