About Horizon House
Welcome to Horizon House: Your Lakeside Retreat
We designed Horizon House for clients who love to travel. They wanted a special place for weekends near Lake Michigan, not far from their main home in Chicago. This house has everything for fun and relaxation: big, open rooms for parties, lots of windows, a gym, a family room, and plenty of bedrooms for their kids and friends.
Where Design Meets Nature
The house stands out with a big glass area on the first floor. We made it look like the second floor is floating above the sand dune. This design lets you see the horizon without anything in the way. The top floor has a special kind of wood called Accoya. It changes color over time to blend in with nature. A unique glass space connects the two main parts of the house. It’s where you find the main entrance and a cool staircase that seems to hang in the air.
Bringing the Outdoors Inside
The inside feels like a beach house. We used simple colors and materials like white oak and big tiles. These choices make the rooms look calm and welcoming. The floor inside is the same as the one on the pool deck outside. This makes the inside and outside feel like one big space.
On the side of the house away from the wind, there’s a quiet courtyard with Ginkgo trees. It’s a great place to relax. The courtyard has a low, textured wall that looks nice and keeps things private. Lights around the edge of the yard make it pretty at night and help connect the inside of the house with the outside.
