Celebrating 41 Years

Minneapolis Fire Restoration

  • <p>After a tragic fire last year, this old federal style house from 1914 needed to be rebuilt from the studs. The goal was to connect the old with the new and replace what the owners had once loved about the original house. The inspiration for the new colors, windows, trim and doors was copied from burnt materials and old photographs. While restoration was already underway, the owners decided to add an addition, deck, finished attic, master bath and other projects. It is now a beautiful home that embodies the history and satisfies the client’s unique tastes.</p> <p><iframe src="https://my.matterport.com/show/?m=QZAzja3mfVH&amp;brand=0" width="853" height="480" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen"></iframe></p>

  • <p>The owners wanted a bar to allow the mixologist in the family a space to prepare cocktails with homemade bitters. The lights and hardware connected the contemporary shape of the dining room chandelier and the globes in the kitchen.</p> <p><iframe loading="lazy" src="https://my.matterport.com/show/?m=QZAzja3mfVH&amp;brand=0" width="853" height="480" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen"></iframe></p>
  • <p>The dining room fireplace was rebuilt and refaced with pinched oval handmade tile. Now the chandelier,  interior, and brick hearth correlate nicely.</p> <p><iframe loading="lazy" src="https://my.matterport.com/show/?m=QZAzja3mfVH&amp;brand=0" width="853" height="480" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen"></iframe></p>
  • <p>A traditional style living room was added off the kitchen in the new addition. A built-in bench, cubbies and coat hooks created an organized entry for the busy family. A large deck was added above the addition with great views of the backyard.</p> <p><iframe loading="lazy" src="https://my.matterport.com/show/?m=QZAzja3mfVH&amp;brand=0" width="853" height="480" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen"></iframe></p>
  • <p>The living room fireplace was redesigned after a  previous, poorly done, renovation. Stone matching the counter in the kitchen created repetition of elements throughout the main floor.</p> <p><iframe loading="lazy" src="https://my.matterport.com/show/?m=QZAzja3mfVH&amp;brand=0" width="853" height="480" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen"></iframe></p>
  • <p>The main entrance was opened up creating a long hall through the house to the back door.</p> <p><iframe loading="lazy" src="https://my.matterport.com/show/?m=QZAzja3mfVH&amp;brand=0" width="853" height="480" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen"></iframe></p>
  • <p>Furniture style cabinets <span style="background-color: rgba(246, 213, 217, 0.996);">gave</span> new life to the vanity in this second-floor bathroom.</p> <p><iframe loading="lazy" src="https://my.matterport.com/show/?m=QZAzja3mfVH&amp;brand=0" width="853" height="480" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen"></iframe></p>
  • <p>A master suite was added during the restoration. Modern lighting and rich historical colors connected the new bathroom to the rest of the house.</p> <p><iframe loading="lazy" src="https://my.matterport.com/show/?m=QZAzja3mfVH&amp;brand=0" width="853" height="480" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen"></iframe></p>
