Keith and Mary Campbell took some mediocre Michigan real estate, however, and turned it into a modern marvel. Their [lakefront Michigan home](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/usonianinspired-lake-house) was custom crafted to house their [amazing furniture collection](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/house-for-a-collector). The Michigan home was photographed by Raimund Koch. See more of the house and more of Koch's work at the links below. **Implications** - A look through these pictures should not disappoint, especially for those who appreciate vintage designs. The [1970s ranch that was transformed](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/fire-island-house) into this homely house helps this abode to have an old, yet new feel. Keith and Mary Campbell truly do have a home worth being very proud of! ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 2.0/10 - Popularity: 28% | Activity: 23% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Art & Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/artdesign) > [Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/design) ## Key Themes ### Key Themes Behind This Trend - **Retro Home Decor:** The trend in retro home decor offers opportunities for furniture manufacturers and vintage collectors to produce and sell unique items that bring nostalgia to consumers. - **Architectural Transformations:** The rise in architectural transformations presents opportunities for contractors and architects to repurpose old buildings and homes into modern and innovative living spaces. - **Home Interior Photography:** The trend in home interior photography offers opportunities for photographers and stylists to showcase their work on social media and websites, attracting potential clients and collaborations. ### Where This Applies - **Furniture Manufacturing:** The furniture manufacturing industry can capitalize on the trend in retro home decor by producing and selling vintage-inspired furniture. - **Construction and Real Estate:** The construction and real estate industries can capitalize on the rise in architectural transformations by investing in the repurposing and renovation of old properties. - **Photography and Styling:** The photography and styling industry can capitalize on the trend in home interior photography by promoting their services to homeowners and businesses looking to showcase their spaces. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Transformed Colorful Holiday Homes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/gdr-bungalow.md) - [Stunning Mid-Century Coastal Homes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/design-theory.md) - [Reimagined Retro Californian Ranch](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/destination-eichler.md) - [Mid-Century Holistic Home Restorations](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cm-g1-house.md) - [Paired-Back Modernist Interiors](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/modernist-interior.md) - [Retro Coastal Home Updates](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pebble-beach-residence.md) - [Juxtaposing Retro Cottage Homes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/drew-mandel-architects.md) - [Organic Lake Retreats](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/usonianinspired-lake-house.md) - [Modernist Modern Retreats](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/general-assembly-1.md)
