HOMES | MARIA WAHLSTRÖM & DAN BACKMAN
Textile Designer Maria Wahlström, and culture journalist Dan Backman moved in to this 1920’s home amid a mix of sloppy and worn mid century decor. More than a decade later, they admit their home will never be completely finished. As a place to test their own ideas, their home is a mix of authentic 1920’s and creative exploration (note the living room storage cabinets). Preferring that the majority of walls are kept clear of decoration, Maria and Dan reserved only a single wall in the main living space for artwork, where two rows of picture moldings create a mini museum. The attic studio looks like a great place to get some work done, complete with comfy seating, a fireplace, and a custom Ikea countertop used as a single long writing and work space. The couple is already making plans for a courtyard facing balcony, to be completed in the fall. See more images after the jump, or read more about their process and the wonderful handmade details throughout the home here.
