When homeowners in Windsor Heights wanted to turn their house into a guest rental, they hired a team from ALT Design Studio to give the place a pop of personality. The results (pictured) won a silver award for decor in the 2024 dsm Home Design Awards.
“‘Whimsical, maximalist jungle’ was the goal, and we wanted to leave no stone unturned,” said Jordynn Schaeffer, who designed the project with Jessica Lemmo and Katie Gassman.
In addition to refinished floors and bold, hand-painted murals by Kim Hutchinson Art, the more-is-more decor brightens up the space and allows a smooth flow between the kitchen, dining area and living room.
“A lot of thought went into picking pieces that would fit the vibe but also hold up to the general wear and tear of a rental property,” Schaeffer added.
