Creekside Exterior Transformed, Minnetonka, US

Creekside Brickhouse is completely transformed on the outside too. A very traditional and beige-toned exterior is modernized with a creamy paint color against black trim, emphasizing traditional red brick. One of the best features of this home is its proximity to nature. The porch and deck are all about immersion in nature and an ‘inside-outside’ experience. Encased in windows, the porch is designed for casual dining with jewel-toned seating. A wall of green contrasts against a moody palette and sheer window treatments let in light, while maintaining privacy. The nearby deck lends itself to easily moving from the house to the deck and back again. A fun bar rail detail allows family and friends to enjoy a drink while taking in the beautiful creek views and the calming sound of flowing water.

Creekside Brickhouse Charmer, Minnetonka, US

Remodeling doesn’t mean erasing the history of a home. Instead, it’s about bringing the best features forward and amplifying. For this 1980s tudor-style, brick-front home, our goal was to add modern functionality while maintaining the integrity, footprint, and architectural language. We opened up the traditional floor plan for an open flow and more natural sightlines. A nearly monochromatic color scheme in the main living areas feels expansive, while also capturing the homeowner’s minimal modern vibe.
