Color Pop Revival
When a family found their dream home just two doors down from their original residence, they knew they had discovered something special. This mid-century modern house, perched above Eagle Lake, was a vibrant jade-colored gem designed by architects in the 1950s. However, the home, influenced by Frank Lloyd Wright, was in need of significant updates, including a leaky flat roof.
The homeowners saw its potential and embarked on a remodel that reimagined the main level and added a second-floor extension. The design strikes a balance between the original mid-century style and a more modern, contemporary feel, incorporating bold colors and textures. Inspired by its lakeside setting, the home evokes a boathouse vibe, with a soothing palette of greens, teals, and blues.
What was once a diamond in the rough is now a truly unique home—a perfect blend of history and modern living.

Room to Grow
One of the most memorable features of this home renovation was the resilient maple tree that originally grew inside a small courtyard.
During the planning phase, the homeowner debated whether to keep the tree, remove it, or plant something new. Ultimately, the tree’s ability to survive the entire demolition and remodel process became a symbol of strength and resilience. As a result, the decision was made to preserve the tree, and it now stands as a beautiful, living testament to the home’s transformation.
