Rustic Glam

Riverfront Custom Home with Onyx Backlit Bar

We are proud to feature our latest work in collaboration with Hage Homes and Tom Rauscher on the Mississippi River.

This custom home features high end finishes, including an Onyx bar countertop with back lighting that highlights the intricacies of the material, as well as a high gloss custom bed frame and cabinetry in the master bedroom. The office features a Wenge wood desk. We also created custom kitchen cabinets and a center island for this extraordinary home, in addition to cabinetry throughout the mud room and laundry area.

Lake Minnetonka Remodel - Custom Kitchen

View photos of the this amazing Lake Minnetonka home remodel in collaboration with Frontier Structures and Home Design by Annie.

Initially, the homeowner wanted us to design and build new cabinets for the dining room, along with custom vanities and built-in cabinetry for the master bathroom. However, after a site visit, we proposed keeping the dining room cabinetry, expanding the existing molding in the dining room to create a more cohesive look for the existing built-in cabinetry and shifting the budget toward a full kitchen remodel which would create a higher return on investment.

Here is what the homeowner had to say…

“Today was move in day for us. While we are feeling a bit exhausted here late tonight, our overwhelming feeling is one of euphoria over how much we love love love our new house! The exquisite cabinet work you did for us is a major reason why. They are, simply put, just gorgeous. Every aspect, every detail. Many thanks to you and your team for the incredible design and craftsmanship you did on our behalf!”

“Teaming up with Brian and his team at Designed & Made is a pleasure.  The creativity, resourcefulness, and proficiency with cabinet design they deliver is an asset to the projects we do with them.”

The idea behind this concept was to break the mold — to find inspiration in a shape and push it.

The Moroccan-style design for the legs was applied to the kitchen island, master bathroom vanity and powder room vanity for a one-of-a-kind look.
