Tucked away in the backwoods of Torch Lake, this home marries “rustic” with the sleek elegance of modern. The combination of wood, stone and metal textures embrace the charm of a classic farmhouse. Although this is not your average farmhouse. The home is outfitted with a high performing system that seamlessly works with the design and architecture. The tall ceilings and windows allow ample natural light into the main room. Spire Integrated Systems installed Lutron QS Wireless motorized shades paired with Hartmann & Forbes windowcovers to offer privacy and block harsh light. The custom 18′ windowcover’s woven natural fabric complements the organic esthetics of the room. The shades are artfully concealed in the millwork when not in use. Spire installed B&W in-ceiling speakers and Sonance invisible in-wall speakers to deliver ambient music that emanates throughout the space with no visual footprint. Spire also installed a Sonance Landscape Audio System so the homeowner can enjoy music outside. Each system is easily controlled using Savant. Spire personalized the settings to the homeowner’s preference making controlling the home efficient and convenient.

This cabinet with radio and a record player inside was found in a second hand store. Though it looked very worn off, the quality of sound inspired me to give it a second life. Here is what it looks like after restoration.

Designed as a dedicated creative retreat, this basement project focused on building a fully sound-proof room where the homeowner could play music and record podcasts without disturbing the rest of the house. Careful attention to insulation, wall assemblies, and door sealing helped contain sound while maintaining a comfortable, functional space. The result is a private studio tucked within the basement—perfect for recording, practicing, and creating whenever inspiration strikes.
