A natural high
Mark and Karen Zeman have the perfect spot. Their Delafield home is close to shopping and has easy access to the expressway, yet it is hidden on top of a very large hill overlooking Lake Nagawicka.
A creative canvas
For former Shorewoodian Kate Goldwater, fashion is her passion.
Raise the roof
The view of Lake Michigan and the Mequon location were the selling points of this property, but Mike and Loretta Kryshak’s vision was far beyond the home’s 1985 design style.
Fantasy league
While Milwaukee area homeowners look forward to the warm breezes of spring and summer following one of the toughest winters in recent memory, it’s time to consider nurturing a great lawn. 
Playing the angles
The owners of this Germantown house wanted their new home to blend Craftsman and Prairie Style architectural influences with modern details and amenities. Rory Palubiski of Fein Design, Mequon, took into account the couple’s wants: natural fireplaces, a metal roof, outdoor living spaces and a designated area for their beloved dogs.
The wonders of wildflower
It’s all about the detail when you enter the home of Peggy Ann. Every square foot was thought about long before it was built. Peggy Ann has an artist eye and her Mukwonago home was her palette.
Everything zen
As East Side residents, Michael Fazio and David Kaiser Jr. were accustomed to keeping an eye open for interesting properties and opportunities.
10 shades of green
Fifteen years ago, three of Andrew Pace’s Safe Building Solutions employees were admitted to the hospital due to inhalation problems after working on a job site.
What lies beneath
With all the talk about global warming, as well as the rising cost of heating our homes, most of us feel a little twinge of guilt at pumping up our thermostats when things feel a little chilly.
Southern charmer
Susan and Michael Stoehr fell in love with a River Hills property with a vintage 1840s home in need of tender loving care. While the couple wanted to breathe new life into the home and maintain the appeal of its history, it was beyond repair. "They came to us with a unique site and old home, but this rehab project was just too difficult," Lakeside Development Co. architect Todd Rabidoux says.
Room of your own
When walk-in closets appeared on the residential scene several decades ago, it was a practical answer to closet clutter. The extra-large space meant homeowners could view their wardrobes at a glance. Everything had its place. Gone was the fear of opening the closet door and enduring an explosion of purses, shoes, jackets and suits.
Returning to their roots
Dennis and Kathy Wicht have lived in their historic Ernest Flagg home for 36 years. While the casement windows, cupola, cedar shake roof, flagstone and skylight details are signature architectural elements of a Flagg home, the couple’s interior design taste has adapted to a myriad of style trends.
Custom comfort
Like other developers in town, Patricia Richter and Dennis Burgener, AIA, were interested in tackling a small condo project — a project that could offer a distinct mix of housing options in one building in order to attract a diverse group of owners, and that they could reside in.
Show time
No one can underestimate the value of a positive first impression when it comes to selling your home. Experts in home staging say your home becomes a product the minute you list.
Personal space
Little did Sue Frey realize when she met Cheri Ware at a Metropolitan Builders Association event that her plans would change dramatically involving the new house she and her husband, Rob, were about to build.
