Riverbend Residence
A 1953 residence by California architect John Dinwiddie in the New Orleans’ Riverbend neighborhood received a significant “makeover”. The approach for the architectural renovations, the interiors and the completely re-worked back yard were to create a more “high style” atmosphere while respecting the language and scale of the existing structure. The interiors marry contemporary photography with mid-century and contemporary ceramics. The furniture is mostly mid-century modern (Robsjohn-Gibbings, Wormley, Haines), but with the occasional French antique mixed in, perhaps a nod to New Orleans and its plethora of good French antiques. Photography by Mark Roskams.
