This stunning home overlooks a mountain valley, across to the ski resort and Continental Divide. Built from native materials such as reclaimed barn wood and farmers stone, it blends with the natural landscape.

The clients built this new home on Lake Minnetonka and hoped for a relaxing space for their family & friends. Loving the Minimalist & Zen style, they wanted to use timeless and quality materials in the space and have the design speak to group entertaining. It was important that the whole space felt open and connected yet very thoughtful with the design elements. Major hardcover restraints had to be followed on this lakeshore property, which lead to creative carpentry and wall placements to make spaces.

Home gym - huge contemporary vinyl floor and gray floor home gym idea in Denver with brown walls

This gorgeous Award-Winning custom built home was designed for its views of the Ohio River, but what makes it even more unique is the contemporary, white-out interior. On entering the home, a 19' ceiling greets you and then opens up again as you travel down the entry hall into the large open living space. The back wall is largely made of windows on the house's curve, which follows the river's bend and leads to a wrap-around IPE-deck with glass railings. The master suite offers a mounted fireplace on a glass ceramic wall, an accent wall of mirrors with contemporary sconces, and a wall of sliding glass doors that open up to the wrap around deck that overlooks the Ohio River. The Master-bathroom includes an over-sized shower with offset heads, a dry sauna, and a two-sided mirror for double vanities. On the second floor, you will find a large balcony with glass railings that overlooks the large open living space on the first floor. Two bedrooms are connected by a bathroom suite, are pierced by natural light from openings to the foyer. This home also has a bourbon bar room, a finished bonus room over the garage, custom corbel overhangs and limestone accents on the exterior and many other modern finishes.

Winner of the 2018 Tour of Homes Best Remodel, this whole house re-design of a 1963 Bennet & Johnson mid-century raised ranch home is a beautiful example of the magic we can weave through the application of more sustainable modern design principles to existing spaces. We worked closely with our client on extensive updates to create a modernized MCM gem. Extensive alterations include: - a completely redesigned floor plan to promote a more intuitive flow throughout - vaulted the ceilings over the great room to create an amazing entrance and feeling of inspired openness - redesigned entry and driveway to be more inviting and welcoming as well as to experientially set the mid-century modern stage - the removal of a visually disruptive load bearing central wall and chimney system that formerly partitioned the homes’ entry, dining, kitchen and living rooms from each other - added clerestory windows above the new kitchen to accentuate the new vaulted ceiling line and create a greater visual continuation of indoor to outdoor space - drastically increased the access to natural light by increasing window sizes and opening up the floor plan - placed natural wood elements throughout to provide a calming palette and cohesive Pacific Northwest feel - incorporated Universal Design principles to make the home Aging In Place ready with wide hallways and accessible spaces, including single-floor living if needed - moved and completely redesigned the stairway to work for the home’s occupants and be a part of the cohesive design aesthetic - mixed custom tile layouts with more traditional tiling to create fun and playful visual experiences - custom designed and sourced MCM specific elements such as the entry screen, cabinetry and lighting - development of the downstairs for potential future use by an assisted living caretaker - energy efficiency upgrades seamlessly woven in with much improved insulation, ductless mini splits and solar gain
