NORTHSHORE MODERN

Overlooking Lake Michigan, high on a bluff, this residence is positioned to capture the sweeping views of the horizon while preserving privacy from the neighbors and street.

Inspired by resort living, the home provides a retreat-like setting for a family of six, balancing both openness and areas for seclusion. Distinct spaces accommodate family gatherings for work and play, whether they be indoors or out.

Study nooks and hallways connect the children’s bedrooms, and built-in custom casework integrates found objects, adding to their personalization.

Expansive windows and outdoor terraces orient the interiors to light and lake vistas, while a refined and complimentary palette of colors and textures, along with other modern finishes, strengthen the home’s contemporary character.

Beyond the architecture, the interiors were carefully curated to ensure cohesion, comfort, and sophistication.
