| The hand-selected ceramic tiles comprising the backsplash pull their colors from the surrounding decor. Custom cabinets, like the ones shown here, also are a great way to personalize your kitchen, providing unique storage, like the drawers beneath the stove, and a chance to create a distinctive look for your home. |

| Judy based the theme of each of the home's four bedrooms, complete with its own gas-burning fireplace, around the couple's travel adventures. She dubbed this guest suite the "Caribbean," with accents to reflect the tropical setting of a resort they had visited. |

| The wall of glass on the view side of the home includes a variety of geometric shaped panes, some with 4-by-4-inch muntins, set between the trusses and beams for a dramatic architectural focal point. Exposed rafters, trusses, heavy post-and-beam structures and wood plank ceilings replicate how homes were built in the past. |

| Cascading roofs, plenty of windows, stone steps and thick walls all contribute to the architectural appeal of this vacation home. Authentic detailing is used throughout the home to replicate the organic growth and additions made to homes of the past. |

Congratulations Judy & Bruno-
Your beautiful log home showcases the variety and creativity that can be utilized in log home building. My husband and I recently bought a lake front parcel in northern Michigan, so I appreciate how you designed and landscaped your lake frontage! Thanks for the inspiration!

Your home on the lake is exactly the floor plan and location I had in my mind. It is wonderful to see it come to life.
Well done!

Beautiful home!! I like how you used white in your home instead of all wood. It makes it look cheery and bright.
