Mid-Century Modern Home Remodeling — Respecting the Past, Reimagining the Future
Crafting Thoughtful Mid-Century Modernization Across Greater Phoenix
Mid-Century Modern homes hold a special place in Arizona’s architectural heritage. From the crisp lines of Ralph Haver ranches in Phoenix to the sculptural geometry of Al Beadle designs in Paradise Valley, these homes blend simplicity, structure, and indoor-outdoor living like no other.
At Homework Remodels, we specialize in Mid-Century Modern remodeling that respects architectural legacy while elevating function and comfort for today’s lifestyle. Whether you’re looking to modernize a galley kitchen, open up a segmented layout, or restore period-appropriate finishes, our design-build approach ensures every detail feels right—because it is.
Why Homeowners Trust Homework Remodels for Mid-Century Modern Renovations
Since 2005, our team has worked throughout Greater Phoenix with a deep appreciation for modernist architecture and a proven track record of craftsmanship. In fact, our remodels have been:
- Featured on HGTV’s Bang for Your Buck
- Showcased in the Modern Phoenix Home Tour
- Included in editorial features on ModernPhoenix.net
We understand that Mid-Century homes require more than just cosmetic upgrades—they demand contextual expertise. Original post-and-beam ceilings, masonry block, clerestory windows, and carports present both opportunity and responsibility. Our team ensures your remodel highlights the home’s character, not erases it.
What Is Mid-Century Modernization?
We use this term to describe remodeling that enhances original features while adding comfort and utility—all without compromising the design essence. Key elements often include:
- Opening galley kitchens while retaining scale
- Installing modern cabinetry in flat-panel or slab-front styles
- Upgrading materials that echo period authenticity (wood, terrazzo, vintage tile)
- Removing load-bearing walls to restore visual flow
- Enhancing natural light and circulation without disrupting original geometry
In short, we upgrade your home with its soul intact.
