The Owners of a home that had been consumed by the moving dunes of Lake Michigan wanted a home that would not only stand the test of aesthetic time, but survive the vicissitudes of the environment. With the assistance of the Michigan Department of Environmental Quality as well as the consulting civil engineer and the City of Grand Haven Zoning Department, a soil stabilization site plan was developed based on raising the new home’s main floor elevation by almost three feet, implementing erosion studies, screen walls and planting indigenous, drought tolerant xeriscaping. The screen walls, as well as the low profile of the home and the use of sand trapping marrum beachgrass all help to create a wind shadow buffer around the home and reduce blowing sand erosion and accretion. The Owners wanted to minimize the stylistic baggage which consumes most “cottage” residences, and with the Architect created a home with simple lines focused on the view and the natural environment. Sustainable energy requirements on a budget directed the design decisions regarding the SIPs panel insulation, energy systems, roof shading, other insulation systems, lighting and detailing. Easily constructed and linear, the home harkens back to mid century modern pavilions with present day environmental sensitivities and harmony with the site. James Yochum

The original wood ceiling of this mill turned loft apartment adds unique charm and personality. Original artwork peppered throughout, unify the space with style and color. An antique Persian rug in deep orange and brown adds softness while complementing the depth of the hardwood floors. The mahogany drop-leaf side table displays a ceramic turquoise lamp which pops against the off-white wall. Cabinets stained in cinnamon toned cherry adorn the kitchen which is just out of view.

Original 1928 Tudor staircase. I lovingly restored it by hand stripping old finish and hand applying new. Labor of love for sure but well worth it!
