What was once a term used to describe a building that was largely garage with an apartment style living area, the "Barndominium" now sometimes refers to a loosely defined style instead of the usage of space in the structure. This home we currently have under construction in northern Ft. Wayne leans more to the definition of style instead of application of space. Instead of the predominant use of the space in this structure being garage, there is a substantial amount of space devoted to entertaining which is exactly what the owners are hoping for. With the direction of the owners, Lynn has designed a home that will deliver on the wishes the owners have in mind. When completed, the home portion of the building will offer four bedrooms, all with their own full baths. There will be a voluminous central great room area with a soaring beamed ceiling and clerestory [...]

After seeing a new home constructed by our company on one side of this site and two extensive remodel/additions performed by us on the other side, the owner of the lot apparently was impressed enough with our work to come to us with the desire to remove the existing cottage and build new. As is the case with most lake properties, there are unique characteristics with this site that needed to be taken into account in the planning of the new home. With direction from the owners, Lynn designed a home to meet their wishes and be positioned to fit nicely on the site. The result is a 7 bedroom, 6 1/2 bath home with a one car attached garage. The primary bedroom is located on the main level with an office located across the hall as well as the kitchen and great room. Incorporated in the design is a [...]

This new home has been uniquely designed by Lynn to meet the very specific wishes and needs of this family. The home is situated on 4 1/2 rolling acres in northern Kosciusko County. With 2,068 sq. ft. of living area on the main level and 352 sq. ft. of finished area in the full daylight basement, the home offers three bedrooms and three full baths. One of the bedrooms offers flexibility by doubling as an office. In addition to the main stairway located off of the foyer, there is another stairway from the oversized 3-car garage directly into the basement. This provides wonderful access to the mechanical and storage areas of the basement without having to access those through the home. There is a floored attic measuring 576 sq. ft. that will have the potential to be converted into living space if that is desired in the future. The home [...]

After dreaming of replacing the tired old cottage on this family property on Lake James, the owners decided that the time had now come to move forward. The goals for the project were to provide more sleeping and bathing capacity as well as being able to enjoy the benefits of new amenities currently available in new homes. The original concept for the home was created by local architect Phillip Breckler. With some subsequent adjustments by Lynn to meet some additional wishes by the owners, as well as lot considerations, the result is a beautiful 4,532 sq. ft. two and one-half story lake home. The design consists of five bedrooms plus a bunk room over the garage. The home contains 3 1/2 baths and two large entertainment areas overlooking the lake. Due to the slope of the lot, it was decided that it made sense to use the area under the [...]

Having completed a partial renovation of this cottage on beautiful Clear Lake several years ago, the owners contacted us about partnering with them again on a more extensive remodel and expansion.  Because of significant nostalgia for the cottage, a total demolition and rebuild was discarded as an option. Lynn was then tasked with coming up with a design that achieved the goals of the owners, yet stuck to a very strict budget. The result is a vacation home that provides 5 bedrooms, which is one more than the cottage originally contained. There also is an additional bath that now makes a total of four. The existing kitchen was disassembled and relocated into the expanded area with a new very large island added that is the center of the combined kitchen, dining and great room area. A fireplace chase that was clumsily located in the center of this space was removed [...]
