Little Detroit Lake, MN · Room for everyone. A place to gather.
The project
More room. One shared story.
Above the Marriott in Detroit Lakes, two condominium units became one gathering place for a large family. The remodel made room for shared meals, board games and time together, while preserving quieter spaces to step away.
Beams draw a continuous line through the joined living spaces, giving the two units a cohesive feel. A separate wet bar eases traffic through the kitchen, with glass-front cabinetry, a richly patterned blue backsplash and beverage storage close to the action. The result is a home organized around the simple pleasure of having everyone together.
