Meridian

Project Spotlight: Meridian

Bold architecture with a striking presence that defies conventional lakefront design - this client wanted something exceptional that would leave an impression.

After other designers produced either uninspired or unbuildable concepts, this dream home was at risk of becoming just another predictable lakeside box.

Expert Solutions

We stepped in with a clear vision, immediately halting the cycle of generic designs and creating a coherent architectural statement that could actually be built while maximizing the property's lakefront potential.

Our approach transformed disconnected concepts into a cohesive design that emphasized dramatic vertical impact without triggering restrictive zoning penalties that come with full three-story construction.

Obstacle Breakthrough

Where others created either uninspired boxes or impractical fantasies, we developed strategic height variations and bold massing that gave the home presence from the street while maintaining zoning compliance.

Our comprehensive site assessment turned what was previously treated as an afterthought—outdoor living—into a seamless extension of the interior spaces with flush transitions and wide openings that blur the boundaries between inside and out.

Resource Mastery

By implementing a carefully integrated rooftop-level terrace design, we unlocked panoramic lake views and additional outdoor living space that competitors had overlooked.

This design advantage eliminated the common compromises between architectural impact and livability, maintaining the client's vision for a home that would stop people in their tracks while delivering practical, connected living spaces.

Proven Success

Don't settle for generic lakefront design—our proven approach transformed this project from a collection of disconnected ideas into a bold architectural statement that honors both the landscape and the client's vision.
