Minnesota Retreat
A quiet family retreat sits high above the lakeshore while comfortably nesting in among the mature trees. It finds inspiration in a kindred structure on the opposite shore, designed by the late Chicago architect James Nagle—the godfather of one of this new cabin’s owners. As the gabled wall of windows on the northern facade proclaims, the view to the water is a priority for this single-family residence, but ultimately it’s in service of a higher one: creating a space where loved ones will enjoy gathering. Arbor Wood Co. thermally modified ash cladding covers the entirety of the residence, adding warmth and beauty that will age along with the newly created memories that will be made for years to come.
