  - Location: Wayzata, MN
  - Photos: 7
  - Description: This exclusive Wayzata neighborhood featured lake views, paved bike/walking trails, and mosquitos. Not necessarily in that order. It's one thing to have a spectacular view from a second-story deck, as was the case with these homeowners, and quite another to be able to enjoy it without copious amounts of bug spray and a constant sense that you are the prey. So, they pushed back against the bugs and hired Murphy Bros. Design \| Build \| Remodel to create a porch that would keep out the insects and l…

  - Location: Not specified
  - Photos: 6
  - Description: This couple loved everything about the Prior Lake home they recently purchased, the size, view, amenities, but not the way the kitchen looked or worked. Who knew a bold color and a keg of Guinness would fix everything. “They had a catch-all desk area in the kitchen that added clutter not usefulness and a very traditional white glazed cabinetry that didn’t fit their style,” recalls Murphy Bros. design/build consultant Courtney Cartee. “The island was an issue as well. So I designed a new larger “…

  - Location: Minneapolis, MN
  - Photos: 9
  - Description: If the cook ain’t happy, ain’t nobody happy. The cramped design and dated condition of this south Minneapolis story and a half frustrated the gourmet cook in this family of four, who wanted more space to entertain. We removed a wall and designed a 5-foot addition off the back for the expanded dining/living space. To bring this dark cramped, poorly designed kitchen into the 21st century without destroying its charm, we added new windows, more lighting, custom flat-panel walnut cabinets, quartz co…

  - Location: Eagan, MN
  - Photos: 12
  - Description: At 30 years of age honey oak trim and cabinetry easily goes from dated to unsightly. Such was the case with these homeowners who had wanted to chuck the traditional look of oak for more years than they care to think about. “It wasn’t just about the honey oak,” explains Murphy Bros. design/build consultant Courtney Cartee, “Although that was a big part of it. The overall end goal was a lighter, brighter ambiance, better workflow and a complete rethink on dining space.” Most kitchens of that 90’s…

  - Location: Farmington, MN
  - Photos: 4
  - Description: After weighing the pros and cons of moving, which included the cost of a move, proximity to schools and shopping, and the overwhelming presence of honey oak woodwork, this Farmington couple finally came to the conclusion that staying put with significant improvements to the main floor, was the best approach for them. The first priority was restructuring and enlarging the kitchen and of course, getting rid of the honey oak cabinetry. In fact, a large aspect of this remodel had to deal with a whol…

**Q: MCM FLOORING** *(in Photo Questions)*

what kind of slate is this kitchen floor? where can I purchase?? I am remodeling my kitchen and can not choose. I think this is perfect

A: Thank you! It was a really fun project!  
There is a ton of variation in the tile. Some spots with a copper-ish tone, but the majority of it is a mix of grey tones. It is a natural slate so it has a "living finish".
