Black siding transformed this home in Maple Grove. This project left a lasting impression, transforming a home with worn and outdated vinyl siding which had been damaged by hail and Minnesota’s harsh climate, in a lakeside retreat. The homeowners sought a fresh look that would elevate both the aesthetic and functionality of their property, making the most of the beautiful lakeside views.
The first major update involved replacing the tired vinyl siding with James Hardie board and batten siding in the striking Shou Sugi Ban color. This deep, rich color brings an elegant, modern look to the home, offering both timeless appeal and exceptional durability. The board and batten style adds texture and sophistication, making the home stand out in the neighborhood.
To complement the dark siding, light-colored cultured stone was added to the front and lakeside, creating a beautiful contrast and enhancing the home’s curb appeal. The cultured stone not only adds a natural, rustic feel but also integrates seamlessly with the overall design, providing a warm, inviting entrance and lakeside view.
Another key element of the remodel was the transformation of the home’s windows. A bank of smaller windows was removed, replaced by a massive Marvin window that now serves as the focal point of the living room, offering unobstructed views of the serene lake. The project also included the removal of several diamond-shaped windows and a six-foot patio door, which were replaced with a sleek 16-foot patio door. This new installation opened up the space, flooding the home with natural light and creating a seamless connection between the interior and the outdoor beauty of the lake.
With these updates, the home in Maple Grove is now a stunning showcase of modern design and functionality, blending sophisticated materials with breathtaking views.

Transforming your kitchen from outdated oak cabinets to a modern, inviting space with white shaker cabinets, vinyl flooring, and granite countertops is a project that can breathe new life into your home. This transformation not only enhances the aesthetic appeal of your kitchen but also adds significant value to your property.
Beginning with the cabinets, the shift from oak to white shaker is a game-changer. White shaker cabinets offer a clean, timeless look that brightens up the space and makes it feel more open and airy. Their simple, yet elegant design pairs well with a variety of styles, from contemporary to farmhouse.
Next, consider the flooring. Vinyl flooring is an excellent choice for the kitchen due to its durability and ease of maintenance. Modern vinyl options are available in a wide range of styles, including those that mimic the look of hardwood or stone, offering a high-end appearance without the high-end cost. Paired with the white shaker cabinets, vinyl flooring creates a cohesive and stylish look.
Finally, granite countertops are the crowning jewel of any kitchen remodel. Their natural beauty and durability make them a popular choice for homeowners looking to upgrade their kitchen. Granite is available in a myriad of colors and patterns, ensuring that you can find the perfect match for your new white shaker cabinets and vinyl flooring. The combination of these elements—shaker cabinets, vinyl flooring, and granite countertops—results in a kitchen that is not only functional but also visually stunning, making it a space where you’ll love to cook, entertain, and spend time with family and friends.

These South Shore of Boston Homeowners approached the Team at Renovisions to power-up their powder room. Their half bath, located on the first floor, is used by several guests particularly over the holidays. When considering the heavy traffic and the daily use from two toddlers in the household, it was smart to go with a stylish, yet practical design.
Wainscot made a nice change to this room, adding an architectural interest and an overall classic feel to this cape-style traditional home. Installing custom wainscoting may be a challenge for most DIY’s, however in this case the homeowners knew they needed a professional and felt they were in great hands with Renovisions. Details certainly made a difference in this project; adding crown molding, careful attention to baseboards and trims had a big hand in creating a finished look.
The painted wood vanity in color, sage reflects the trend toward using furniture-like pieces for cabinets. The smart configuration of drawers and door, allows for plenty of storage, a true luxury for a powder room. The quartz countertop was a stunning choice with veining of sage, black and white creating a Wow response when you enter the room.
The dark stained wood trims and wainscoting were painted a bright white finish and allowed the selected green/beige hue to pop. Decorative black framed family pictures produced a dramatic statement and were appealing to all guests.
The attractive glass mirror is outfitted with sconce light fixtures on either side, ensuring minimal shadows.
The homeowners are thrilled with their new look and proud to boast what was once a simple bathroom into a showcase of their personal style and taste.
"We are very happy with our new bathroom. We received many compliments on it from guests that have come to visit recently. Thanks for all of your hard work on this project!"

The guest bathroom was stuck in a design time warp. The vanity, fixtures, and tiling were all remnants of past trends that seemed tired and less appealing. The shower/tub combo lacked the allure and comfort.
John recognized the value in a cohesive design language throughout his home and chose to extend the fresh, modern aesthetic established in the master bathroom to the guest bath.
The outdated vanity was replaced with the stylish Sollid Value White Shaker cabinets, and the Fairy White Quartz countertops was installed, instantly brightening the room with their polished surface and crisp, clean lines.
The mirrors upgrade was significant, with the Kohler Essential mirrors lending an expansive and luxurious feel, further accentuated by the Mencino bath lights casting a welcoming glow.

Our client wanted a designated space for a fire pit and patio. We capitalized on the yard’s existing slope to create a very inviting amphitheater-style patio. We used pavers and a segmental wall block system to create the space. Subtle landscape lighting was incorporated into the walls to create a beautifully welcoming mood at night.
A graphite-gray concrete mow curb was installed as a landscape bed border, and crushed black granite was used as a bed dressing for dramatic effect. We surrounded the patio with a bed of Gay Feather. Plant choices for the rest of the project included Variegated Iris, Stella d’Oro Day Lilies, Pink Supreme Shrub Roses, Maiden Grass, and Royalty Lilac.
