The stairway of this Prairie-style lake house was placed in the core of the home to become a “sculptural piece of modern art.” Beautifully articulated horizontal and vertical lines that define the exterior are repeated in the design of the stairway, rendered in wood, metal, and glass, with minimalistic detailing. The metal handrails, glass-panel supports and fasteners, and structural steel were finished with a topical acid and hand-brushed to create the unique pewter/zinc finish.

The most unique rug in this residence anchors the great room and sets the tone and color for the rest of the home. Every thread color and composition were hand-chosen and viewed with the other fabrics and finishes in the room. Even the combinations and percentages of Tibetan wool and silk threads were carefully contemplated and considered before three rounds of samples were created by artisans in Nepal.

There’s no place cozier than around this fireplace. The focal point for the great room, the gas-flamed fireplace rises from its cantilevered stone base and is surrounded by a massive wall of porcelain slabs rising all the way up to the cedar ceiling. Matching the 6-foot width of the fireplace is a flat-screen TV, ensuring the homeowners stay warm and toasty while watching their favorite show. The integrated design is bookended by floor-to-ceiling Fon-du-Lac stone columns.

CUSTOM CABINETRY OR FURNITURE

Conceptualized from a client’s travel-based inspiration photo, these modern-industrial hanging chairs became reality. The design was created by combining preferences regarding shape, size, and formality. A local metal artist engineered and constructed the chairs from metal sheets and rods to accomplish the vision. Once a metal shell foundation was formed, custom leather upholstered seat cushions were fabricated to fit the one-of-a-kind chairs, which hang along a wall of retractable glass doors with invisible screens.
