Wayzata Lake Home

Skyfall Exterior

Designed & Made was brought into this elegant new construction home in Wayzata built by John Kraemer & Sons and architecturally designed by Murphy & Co.

The home features a custom kitchen, pantry, master closets, bathroom vanities and an integrated upholstered bed wall in the master bedroom.

We designed and engineered two custom hydraulic lifts in this home. The custom bar lift features integrated backlit liquor shelves in a step down bar area, and there is double-sided TV lift that raises up out of the floor of the master bedroom. See the videos below for a demonstration on how the lifts operate.

“We’ve had the pleasure of working with Brian and his amazing team on a few different projects, one of them being a custom sunken bar at a new residence where the client wanted something extra special. Brian and his team developed a custom hydraulic lift that raised bottles and glasses out of the cabinet and positioned them in front of a massive window. It’s a stunning addition to the bar, and the execution and quality was top notch!”

Designed & Made is excited to work with Tom Rauscher & Associates and Hage Homes on a 7,800 square foot custom home which was featured on the 2020 Artisan Home Tour. Working with professionals early in the process allows us to complement their vision for the space and fit architecturally-designed cabinetry within the home without constraints.

Designed & Made is creating a grotto-style range hood using a combination of 3D modeling, 3D printing and CNC technology. These capabilities help bring the vision to reality and enable greater collaboration throughout the process.

As you’ll see from the sketches, photos and renderings below, we are working in an iterative process to execute the architect’s vision tailored to the homeowner’s lifestyle.
