Phoenix Rising
An abandoned Arizona home takes flight with mid-century modern furnishings and a major makeover.

A vintage yellow vase filled with flowers in the same color family adds a cheerful note. Attributed to pioneering modernist designer Harvey Probber, the round inlay coffee table acts as a stage for cobalt blue candlesticks and a Bitossi bowl. The kitchen walls are wallows with beveled subway tiles. A recess niche above the farmhouse sink features patterned tiles and a ledge. The corner fireplace is the stand-out feature in Kylie and Ryan Durkin’s great room. Original rectangular block poured-concrete walls lend the space an organic feel. A leather armchair is accentuated with a colorful pillow with a geometric pattern. Keeping faithful to the mid-century mantra of creating beauty from an amalgam of things you love, the couple chose a centuries-old French pastry counter as the kitchen’s focal point. The bedroom’s décor—which includes items culled from Modern Manor, as well as estate sale and Craigslist, trends toward cheerful tones. A handsome vintage turquoise pottery is giving place of honor in the kitchen A stained-glass window, one of a pair the Durkins bought on Craigslist, sits atop an art-deco chest. On display are choice examples of Italian pottery, including a Rimini blue bull by Aldo Londi for Bitossi. Ryan and Kylie share a quiet moment in the garden with their two boys, Sawyer and River, and their Yorkshire terrier, Ollie. These vintage vases were designed by the Bitossi company and Bagni. The metal horse was created in the style of Frederick Weinberg. To make items pop, the walls were painted blue. Prized possessions line built in shelves that frame a window niche.
