NKBA Competition
kitchen Design Statement A natural environment, close to a lake, provides a sense of seasons and the fullness each time of year brings for a business couple and their two dogs in this new cabin. Dwelling at the lakeside has a softer pace reflected in an appreciation for a home that welcomes home-owners and visitors alike to sit and settle for a while.

kitchen Mechanical & Lighting I used corrugated galvanized metal to create a focal soffit enhancing the lakeside cabin aesthetic. The metal skirt hides a 54” skylight ceiling fan by Futuro designed to vent an entire room. The original plan included two small windows in the north east corner of the kitchen. A new series of three windows staged together allow a view of arriving guests while providing almost a full wall of natural light.

Sustainability
den Design Statement For the homeowners a life spent working in and around the world’s oceans required an investment in ecologically ethical materials for their home. Their second criteria were to imbue an essence of the deep mystery a restful ocean conveys. From the wool Oushak rug, hand knotted in Turkey to a roller blind manufactured using Cradle to Cradle closed loop practices, the design has succeeded in achieving a minimalistic impact on the world’s resources. Using gentle hues highlighted with anchoring tones we are soothed from everyday bustle.

Remodel—Exterior
original facade

rendered option
sketched option 2 exterior fixtures & finishes When remodeling the façade of this Victorian folk house I chose to highlight the authentic structure with details appropriate for the mid to late 1800’s time period it was built in. Being a country home of modest means there was often little ornamentation included on the original facade. Any decoration was added in later Victorian times when manufactured goods became readily available and affordable for working homeowners. Subtle elegance is added with details such as gable drops and brackets, dentil trim, and round porch columns. Extra and larger windows allow light into the home and balance the exterior. Zinc metal roofing accents a soft warm cream color of the lap siding. A sedate Victorian Stick Style front door, sits demurely past wide steps, under the sheltering porch.

Each designer was given a client color preference. The color ’Rust’ by Benjamin Moore was my inspiration. A Chippendale styled cabinet in black with interior shelves in a deep orange launched the design theme which grew into soft, elegant finishes with similar elements of tone and color. I added variation by using pattern and texture in the different rooms.

The Northern European heritage of many Minnesotans helped me choose the light and graceful Gustavian style of furniture as an ottoman design. Created in the reign of King Gustav III, Gustavian furniture has simple elegant shapes based, in part on the French Louis XVI style. Finishes are modest soft neutrals accented with just the perfect touch of glorious gold. This bench ottoman has a chic uncomplicated style, which is so appropriate for today’s home of essential, uncluttered beauty. Charming soft neutrals complement current trends for lakeside cottages, farmhouses, or urban lofts. Use it in an entry hall, bedroom, living or dining area. Currently being constructed for a drawing winner of our Fall Design Competition.

The interesting wall angles in this laundry room create an opportunity to think a little harder about how to utilize the small space for multiple functions.
price list
I created an inviting, super functional laundry room, accommodating wall angles, providing a sewing center, and using a vintage sink. There is plenty of folding space with open storage underneath for laundry baskets. Closed storage above provides a place to hide cleaning equipment and solutions. A hanging rail close to the door means laundered clothes are easily accessible. Skills used were space planning, 20/20 drafting, and digital rendering.

private residence Before & After Plans The homeowners had purchased a mid -70’s ranch style home, which required some extensive updating. They love the central kitchen but needed to expand the kitchen, create a more open flow, hide an exterior exit door and steps, incorporate a fireplace, and install a sliding glass door to exit onto a patio area. Columns were placed to support a load bearing wall and define a large central island. A dining room serving area accommodates a mini fridge, microwave, and bar sink. The kitchen’s west wall is a combined baking and mini-office center.
Goals Reallocate space Better circulation More light
