坐落于洛杉矶 Wilshire 区 Hancock Park 历史街区的这座 1926 年双拼住宅，是室内设计师卡罗琳·米勒（Carolyn Miller）以十余年时间逐步打磨的私人居所。房屋原有的 1920 年代风貌，包括灰泥线脚、通透拱门与经典窗型，在改造过程中被悉心保留，与她所偏好的现代主义语汇形成恰到好处的张力。米勒与丈夫及两只狗共同生活于此，这处空间见证了她设计理念的成熟与拓展。

This 1926 duplex residence, located in the Hancock Park historic district of Los Angeles Wilshire area, is the private home of interior designer Carolyn Miller, which she has refined over a period of more than ten years. The original 1920s features of the house, including stucco moldings, transparent arches and classic window styles, were carefully preserved during the renovation, creating a perfect tension with her preferred modernist vocabulary. Miller lives here with her husband and two dogs, and this space has witnessed the maturation and expansion of her design philosophy.

米勒自述“眼界常常比预算更大胆”，因此住宅的形成是一场缓慢而持续的积累。她在十年间搜寻理想家具，并花三年亲自参与改造，大量细节由她亲手完成：拆换风口、重新配置门把手、制作柚木厨房拉手，甚至亲自安装多数壁灯与吊灯。只有诸如 Apparatus Studio 的大型 Tassel 吊灯等重量级灯具才需专业协助；壁炉旁的罗马土墙面更是她尝试 Portola 质材的成果。

Miller herself once said, My vision is often bolder than my budget. Therefore, the formation of this residence was a slow and continuous accumulation. Over a decade, she searched for ideal furniture and spent three years personally participating in the renovation. She completed a large number of details by herself: replacing air vents, reconfiguring door handles, making teak kitchen pulls, and even installing most of the wall lamps and pendant lamps herself. Only heavy-duty fixtures like the large Tassel pendant lamp by Apparatus Studio required professional assistance; the Roman plaster wall beside the fireplace was the result of her experimentation with Portola materials.

空间的陈列体现了她对 20 世纪中段北欧、意大利与日本设计的深刻理解：如 George Nakashima（乔治·中岛）椅、Noguchi（野口勇）灯具、Asko Finland（芬兰 Asko）扶手椅与 Azucena（阿祖切纳）壁灯等，都与古董柜、陶艺作品与现代家具并置。她强调“独特甚至略带晦涩的来源”，经常在 Bukowskis、Bonhams 等拍卖行或各地二手渠道中寻找充满灵性的物件。

The spatial arrangement reflects her profound understanding of mid-20th-century Nordic, Italian and Japanese design: pieces such as George Nakashima chairs, Noguchi lamps, Asko Finland armchairs and Azucena wall lamps are juxtaposed with antique cabinets, ceramic works and modern furniture. She emphasizes unique and even slightly obscure sources, often seeking spiritually charged objects at auction houses like Bukowskis and Bonhams or through second-hand channels around the world.

在卧室，简练的 Jenni Kayne（詹妮·凯恩）床与日本古董箪笥形成稳重基调；在书房，Artemide 的 Shogun 灯与金属椅、John van Koert（约翰·范·科特）书桌构成现代主义的精确层次；而在次客厅中，一件 Jean Prouvé（让·普鲁韦）木金属柜则成为打破秩序的小小“偏移点”，呈现米勒所说“让空间保持生命力的失衡之美”。

In the bedroom, the concise Jenni Kayne bed creates a stable tone with the Japanese antique chest of drawers; in the study, the Artemide Shogun lamp, along with the metal chair and John van Koert desk, form a precise hierarchy of modernism; and in the secondary living room, a Jean Prouvé wooden-metal cabinet becomes a small offset point that breaks the order, presenting the unbalanced beauty that keeps the space alive as described by Miller.

这一住宅既是她的日常场景，也是专业实验场。她在其中不断重组、替换、再陈列，让 Anne Rothenstein（安妮·罗斯坦）画作与 Apparatus 灯、Lalique（莱俪）花瓶、朴素的日本壶器同场对话。米勒认为，生活在高品质器物之间，会让人真实感知工艺的表达力，也使居住者对日常产生更敏锐的触感与精神指向。

This residence is not only her daily living space but also a professional experimentation venue. She constantly reorganizes, replaces and re-arranges things within it, allowing Anne Rothensteins paintings to have a dialogue with Apparatus lamps, Lalique vases, plain Japanese pottery, etc. Miller believes that living among high-quality objects enables one to truly perceive the expressive power of craftsmanship, and also gives the occupants a more sensitive touch and spiritual orientation towards daily life.
