### Featured Review

**★★★★★ — Jeffrey Uecker, April 2019**

> Genesis Architecture and its principal architect, Ken Dahlin, were extremely knowledgeable and professional in the design and construction of our Frank Lloyd Wright inspired new home.  They have a great understanding of Wright home design principles; they listened to our thoughts and needs for a new home and gave us just what we wanted, a home based on Wright's design principles.  Their work quality and responsiveness was great.  They included us in all aspects of the project.  We are completely happy with Genesis Architecture and our new home they designed for us.

**★★★★★ — Paige Wood, June 2024**

> It's clear that Genesis Architecture doesn't just design houses, they design experiences.  Each home feels thoughtfully crafted with the residents' needs and desires in mind.
>
> If you're looking for an architectural firm that prioritizes both beauty and livability, look no further than Genesis Architecture. Their work is truly inspiring.

**★★★★★ — Chad Zeiler, Nov. 2023**

> Ken, Tracy and the entire Genesis staff more than exceeded our expectations in creating our mid-century modern dream home in Oconomowoc, WI.  We could not be more pleased with the design and finished product.  Absolutely perfect!
>
> The entire process with Genesis, from conception to completion, was by far the easiest part of this our three + year journey building our home.  The team at Genesis created an incredible custom design on an extremely challenging lot that fits our lifestyle.  They were there for us at every step during the process ensuring our home was built as designed from start to finish.  An invaluable resource for not only my wife and I, but the builder and trades as well.
>
> Experts in their field, professional, attention to detail, timely as well as friendly and very easy to work with are, at a minimum, what to expect when working with Genesis.  They bring your home to life during the design process with a not only a comprehensive building plan, but detailed renderings, and videos of your new home inside an out.  A true value when building a unique, custom home.
>
> I would highly recommend Ken and the entire staff at Genesis Architecture.  We could not be any happier with the design of our new home!

**★★★★★ — HU-32194115, Nov. 2023**

> We live in the western suburbs of Chicago and wanted to build a Prairie Style home. We researched architects in the Chicagoland and surrounding areas and found Ken Dahlin and Genesis Architecture to design our home in the late 1990’s. Ken’s initial drawings captured our dream home in a way we could not have imagined ourselves.
>
> Ken and the team of Genesis Architecture are professional, dedicated, and great with communication. Ken was fun and easy to work with during the design and build stages, continuing to educate us and the builder on concepts of Wright’s principles and organic architecture. The very detailed blueprints of our custom home provided our builder and the subcontractors all the information they needed during the build process. When questions or problems came up, Ken was available to work on solutions with the builder and our village. Our home was completed in August 2001. We have been in our dream home for over 22 years and still love it every day. Over the last two decades we have experienced the joy, fun, serenity and comfort that our Genesis Architecture home was designed to provide.
>
> Ken Dahlin is an artist who has a creative gift of listening and reading people and then translating their dreams into a beautiful architectural wonder. If you read the Genesis Architecture reviews on any site, you will see this is common thread on all their projects. We highly recommend Ken Dahlin and Genesis Architecture for your build or remodel. We are grateful every day to live in a beautiful Ken Dahlin - Genesis Architecture home.

**★★★★★ — Meg Daniels, Oct. 2022**

> Fantastic experience with Genesis! We needed to renovate an awkward 1970s kitchen addition within our 1953 Hans Geyer designed home. Ken designed the kitchen/dining/powder room/hall spaces which were completely gutted and gave us the entertaining space we had always wanted while integrating and repeating the key MCM design elements from the rest of the home. The first comment everyone makes when seeing the remodeled area is "this looks like it is the way it was always supposed to be". We could not be happier with the newly remodeled spaces and the way in which Ken's design flows into the original architecture. He is a true professional and a master of Mid Century design.

**★★★★★ — Owen Thompson, Jan. 2021**

> We moved to Racine from Oak Park, Illinois about three years ago to be closer to our grandchildren and Lake Michigan.  We were attracted to the view and the surrounding South Side Historic District architecture.  But the 1920’s home we purchased was a neglected, aluminum-sided mess. It had drafty windows in six different styles, a sagging DIY front porch, and had been stripped of all its original exterior style and character.
>
> Ken Dahlin’s thoughtful plans restored our home’s Arts and Crafts style with 21st century building materials, which will require minimal maintenance and hold up to the harsh lakefront weather conditions.  His attention to both the structural challenges of our sandy soil, and the detailed reconstruction of the historic exterior trim the house still impress us. The new front porch he designed fits the house perfectly and continues to draw compliments from the neighbors.
>
> I highly recommend putting Genesis Architecture at the top of you list for your next building or remodeling project.

**★★★★★ — Michael Birndorf, June 2019**

> It has been over 10 years since we built our home designed by Ken Dahlin but the enjoyment has never faded.  Ken's vision and artistry captured our ideas and desires which we everyday appreciate as we walk through the house.  I remember that we the clients, created a design process that was lengthy, but never tired of it.  This due to the fact that we so enjoyed being involved that we were constantly adding and changing the plans to suit our needs. We finally arrived at the result that is spectacular.  We still look to Ken for any advice on projects that continue to develop around our home
>
> Thanks Ken

> Michael Birndorf

**★★★★★ — Blue Hot Design, LLC, May 2019**

> I have had the pleasure of working with Ken and his team on at least one home per year since 2001. Each of his designs is unique and well-thought out. He is sought after for his Frank Lloyd Wright-inspired concepts, and takes organic architecture to a fresh new level. Ken's use of natural materials makes the homes feel timeless. If you are interested in living in a breathtaking three dimensional sculpture customized just for you, Ken is your man.

**★★★★★ — Alisa Swire, April 2019**

> I highly recommend Ken Dahlin and Genesis Architecture. It was such a pleasure to have Ken and his team shepherd the Christensen House project through a massive remodel. His redesign was both thoughtful and stunning. Ken took the time to understand my family's needs and preferences and to really listen. He then translated that into a visually stunning design that functioned beautifully and was a joy to live in every day. We had plenty of "surprises" during the remodel and Ken always remained calm and unflappable. He and his team were also very mindful of the budget and costs. We loved working with him so much that we hired him and Genesis again in 2015 to do our lake house!  Truly a wonderful architect!!

**★★★★★ — Aleks Cukic, April 2019**

> I've had the pleasure of working closely with Ken and his team through all phases (Planning--design--construction--post construction) of my "complex" lakeside home build. I couldn't be more satisfied with Ken's professionalism, the quality of his design and his thoughtful guidance throughout the entire project. The creative energy that Ken and his team brought to this project was unparalleled. I would strongly recommend Genesis Architecture to anyone contemplating a custom home build.

**★★★★★ — hopeerwin, Aug. 2016**

> There couldn't be a better architect than Ken Dahlin!  He is brilliant.  We have used several other architects in the past, both in Massachusetts and Wisconsin, and have never had such an extraordinary experience.  His design ideas sing!  He has flexibility and humility, and is easy and fun to work with.  He knows how to respect the interplay of nature and structure, and used sites magnificently.  He is just finishing a second project for us.  The first project he did has been in use for five years now, and it has been a joy for living and working.  We also used him for kitchen and interior design, and I find myself thanking him whenever I cook!  He also works in a cost effective way, and both projects came in on budget!
> I can't imagine that anyone could find a better architect or designer anywhere!

**★★★★★ — Robert J Erdmann Design, LLC, Aug. 2016**

> Genesis Architecture's sense and sensibility of design aesthetic is outstanding. Ken Dahlin's projects are among the most creative architectural endeavors, yet there is a calm simplicity in the mood he orchestrates through his thoughtful work.
>
> While he often pushes the envelope of design and creativity, Ken finds ways to incorporate natural materials that lend an organic feeling. Genesis Architecture goes beyond simply specifying custom materials, they research products to provide "the best" installation for their clients.
>
> Genesis Architecture manages their projects efficiently and respectfully. They understand that every person on the construction team is a key player helping manifest the design vision for their clients. Working on projects and collaborating with the team at Genesis Architecture is something I look forward to whether it is consulting on the use of wood or co-designing custom millwork and cabinetry.
>
> It is truly remarkable working with Ken Dahlin and I highly recommend Genesis Architecture.

**★★★★★ — User, July 2016**

> We had been researching architects for a prairie style house for several years. We saw Ken's work at a home show in Milwaukee. We knew he was the right person from the start. Ken came up with a design that was better than we could imagine. He worked with us on changes to get exactly what we wanted. He understood the need to fit the home to our lifestyle.
> Ken and his staff are true professionals. Communications were excellent and prompt. Phone calls and emails were always returned. The details in the drawings were first class and there was never an issue with contractors not knowing what was intended. I acted as the general contractor and Ken and his staff were always available to assist when questions did come up.
> I would highly recommend Genesis Architecture to anyone looking for a top notch architect.

**Comment from Genesis Architecture, LLC.:**

> Thank you very much, we enjoyed working with you on this wonderful home and in being a part of the team which made this project a success!

**★★★★★ — Gregg Tushaus, Dec. 2015**

> We were attracted to Genesis Architecture's beautiful craftsman and prairie homes and home designs. We wanted a custom home that blends the craftsman and mountain architecture styles into a custom lake home designed for our lake property and lake living.  Ken blended mountain and craftsmen styles to meet our tastes. We started the design process with a list of functional and lifestyle requirements. Ken took  our inputs and designed a home that fits our life style and the lake setting perfectly. Our home is a wonderful gathering place with family and friends, many which describe it as an amazing home.

**★★★★★ — aromaker, March 2015**

> Through our years long, and continuing relationship, we have taken advantage of Genesis Architecture's unparalleled ability to deliver inspired and creative home design and architectural services.  The principal portion of those services lead to the construction our contemporary home in Lake Geneva, WI, that was completed in 2007, with the addition of an integral swimming pool in 2011.  This architectural masterpiece continues to amaze us whenever we are there.  How the principal of Genesis envisioned the gorgeous end result--inside and out--that was little-changed from the first creative iterations must be analogous to a composer hearing the score and he writes the notes.  This ability continues to be reflected in smaller design projects implemented subsequently.  We could not recommend this Company more highly.

**★★★★★ — galenausonian, March 2015**

> When we wanted to build a home based on Frank Lloyd Wright's Usonian Natural House elements we knew we would need to find an architect who was completely well versed in Wright's language and principles.  We found that architect in Ken Dahlin of Genensis Architecture.  An examination of Ken's work clearly demonstrates his respect and incorporation of Wright's principles in all of his projects.  Although most of Ken's works were of a larger scale, he was clearly excited about our small home project that was more in line with the human scale espoused by Wright.  From beginning to end Ken carefully assimilated our needs and desired Usonian details and produced a design that while, taking advantage of current building technology, captured the spirit of the Wright Usonsian home, as can be appreciated in the photos on his  Houzz  webpage.  Ken was always accessible throughout the project and took the time to work closely with the builder and subcontractors to ensure the successful execution of the design.  Having now spent 6 months in the house we have been delighted with the result and constantly discover new details which accompany a thoughtful design.  We highly recommend Ken and Genesis Architecture for anyone looking to build or remodel.

**★★★★★ — stigg, March 2015**

> We hired Ken to design a unique, modern home tailored to our tastes and lifestyle, and he delivered an innovative design that far exceeded our expectations. The abundant natural lighting, sensitive detailing, and humanly scaled spaces speak to our souls… we still say "Wow!" to ourselves every time we return home.  In addition to being a gifted architect, Ken is a strong team player. He eagerly collaborated with the specialist designers also contributing to the project, and provided excellent support to the builder every step of the way during construction. Ken has earned our utmost respect, and we enthusiastically recommend him as an architect.

**★★★★★ — Ginkgo Leaf Studio, Dec. 2012**

> Kenneth Dahlin is a truly talented and professional architect. His attention to detail and his modern designs are what set him apart from the rest. It's a genuine pleasure to work with Kenneth on his client's projects. We are brought in early in the design process before the home design is even complete. Cohesion between the architecture of the home and the landscape is the end result.  If you're looking for a custom, one-of-a-kind home, we highly recommend Genesis Architecture, LLC.

**★★★★★ — obriensorensen, Oct. 2012**

> We are the owners of the Delafield Modern and enjoyed working with Ken Dahlin. He was always professional, calm in the midst of building chaos and very understanding of what we wanted to accomplish on the budget we had.  We loved his style of homes and wanted to capture the simplicity yet glamour of modern design.

**★★★★★ — richfrank, Sept. 2012**

> We are the owners of the Leenhouts home addition.  Ken not only is a fantastic designer, he is personable, devoted, and reasonably priced.  Could not have asked for more.  Love living in his beautifully designed spaces.

## Community Q&A

**Q: what siding is used here?** *(in Photo Questions)*

I’m looking for this profile for a MCM waterfront home in the Pacific Northwest.

A: Tongue and Groove or ship-lap in profile. I think 4&quot; exposure.

**Q: How did you route the plumbing to accomadate for the niche?** *(in Photo Questions)*

I have been trying to this but the plumbing is always in the way and leaves you with a too shallow of a niche.

A: In this case I believe that we actually padded out the tiled projections rather than made niches into the stud wall. That way the full stud cavity was available for plumbing. This may not work in cases where you don't have the room for the extra few inches of space into the shower.

**Q: beautiful house** *(in Photo Questions)*

May I know what is this flooring? Thanks

A: This is a concrete floor with a simple clear coat.

**Q: These are beautiful renderings.** *(in Photo Questions)*

What software/process do you guys use?

A: This one was done with ArchiCad along with Artlantis Render

**Q: what is the rock veneer?** *(in Photo Questions)*

What is the rock veneer?

A: The stone veneer behind the cedar fence was all existing from the 1950’s. It is a local Lannon stone.

**Q: can you tell me the paint colors..?** *(in Photo Questions)*

Can you tell me the paint colors

A: The lighter ceiling and upper wall color is Sherwin Williams &quot;Bagel&quot; and the lower green wall color is Sherwin Williams &quot;Sawdust&quot;.
