One of our favorite parts of Mid-Century travel is finding those fabulous out of the way motels for an affordable price. One of our biggest challenges on our trip back east was finding something near New York City. We knew we wanted to stay close Mamaroneck-Motel1by – because we were spending the day in Manhattan. Just 21 miles north we found the Mamaroneck Motel.

Although the website doesn’t do it justice, it’s a fabulous retro motel that you wouldn’t notice if you didn’t know it was there.

The motel has 34 rooms that surround a circular flower filled courtyard.  The retro streamlined style is well kept and has a fun atmosphere including a fantastic pizza restaurant just out front (it used to be the motel restaurant).

I wish I’d known abou them when we picked out bathroom tile for our remodel. I’m sure most of you know Pam, Retro Renovation – she’s a fanatstic resource for Mid-Century remodeling manufacturers. And our friends at Crestview doors just got a wonderful write up in Eichler Network.

The Geometry of the Midcentury Modern Garden — Part I

Contributing writer Ted Cleary, ASLA, of Studio Cleary Landscape Architecture, is back to shed light on the structure behind MCM landscape design that accounts for its unique look: I’m often asked by MCM enthusiasts which plants are most appropriate for the landscaping around their home. To be sure, certain species bring to mind that midcentury modern look: strongly “architectural” plants whose bold textures like spiky Yucca, big floppy Philodendron or stiffly upright Sansevieria (Mother-in-Law’s Tongue) are associated with the Southern
