Majestic Harmony brings bold artistry and timeless elegance to this transitional family room. Featuring Venetian plaster panels in vibrant, warm tones framed by deep navy blue, this design blends rich textures and multimedia techniques to create a striking focal point.

My Luminous Finish Coats® technique was utilized on the walls in this space. It is very difficult to capture the level or intensity of luminosity in the room. The walls glisten or sparkle. The intensity of the glow shifts throughout the day as the ambient /natural light changes. You can see the luminous aspect of my technique by the way the light from the track lighting is reflecting back on the wall.

Kelim rug with a significant graphic touch and colour palette. Our Kelim Rugs are hand made and therefore a slight difference in weaving from rug to rug can occur. The weaving technique is 'Punja' loom which is a traditional manual loom and one of the oldest weaving techniques. Also, the wool yarn is hand dyed so some shade variation will occur due to nature of wool and dyeing. Our supplier is Woolmark licensees, which guarantee an independent quality endorsement.

Shou Sugi Ban Paneling from Manomin Resawn Timbers makes a dramatic statement in this modern transitional bedroom, finished with a wire brushed texture and a clear matte finish that highlights the wood's rich, charred grain. This Japanese wood burning technique creates a uniquely dark, moody accent wall without the need for dark stains or paint, pairing beautifully with a leather-strapped headboard, woven leather bench, and a live-edge wood nightstand. Shou Sugi Ban is achieved by charring the reclaimed wood, then brushing the ash away before cleaning and sealing the surface, resulting in a wall that's not only visually striking but resistant to fire, insects, rot, and decay. This wire brushed style highlights the wood's natural grain patterns beneath the char, offering a refined, elegant take on a traditional technique. Whether you are a homebuilder, a home remodeling contractor, or a homeowner shopping for paneling with real drama and depth, Manomin Resawn Timbers has stunning reclaimed wood to suit your needs. Visit our showroom in Hugo, MN or reach out to us with a call or a message to discover the antique charm of reclaimed wood.

This rustic style home on Hartwell Lake was designed and built for the owners to enjoy with family and friends during their active weekend lifestyle. The home was built on a narrow, deep lot that was semi-level on the roadside and steep on the lakeside. The back half of the lot heavily wooded with mature oak and poplar trees reducing the harsh sun’s heat gain on the home. The exterior utilizes fiber cement cedar shake and lap siding complimented by deep brown colors for the windows, soffit, trim and the large square columns. A nice balance of natural earth toned stacked stone rounds out the exterior materials completing the rustic casual lake living. The home 5400 SF is designed and built on thee levels each having a primary focus. The main level creates primary daily living for the owners. This level features an open plan with an entry, stair, dining, kitchen and living areas leading to a large lakeside screened porch. A master suite is privately tucked off its own hallway and allowing it to enjoy the lakeside as well with its own private deck. On the opposite side are two bedrooms, a study and a shared bathroom for each to utilize. An open carport for two vehicles was created with the motor court and connects to the mudroom/utility room giving the owners direct entry into their home. The upper level is for the grand children with an oversized bedroom, bathroom and loft area for play. The lower level is the considered the party level. Its primary feature is an elevated stage for the owner’s band opened to a large seating area, dining and kitchen for viewing and listening with direct access to another screened porch. Flanking each side is a theater and two additional bedrooms and bathrooms. Energy Efficient features include: • The majority of the lower level sunk into the site below grade • 6” thick walls utilizing advanced framing techniques • Foil covered roof sheathing • Extensive use of blown in cellulous • All windows & doors are double paned low E argon filed glass • Tank-less water heaters • Three separate high efficiency HVAC units with programmable thermostats and a fresh air ERV.

Clay. There are several types of Ukrainian clay used here. The walls are decorated in 9 different techniques. One of them, for instance, is commonly used in ceramic sculpture modelling. To get a texture with rhythmical dints, the walls were covered with clay and knocked with a wooden spoon until they got dry. Also, according to ancient Ukrainian traditions, the clay was mixed with flax seeds, rye, and wheat — this technique was used in the times of Trypillia.
