Milwaukee, WI
This private residence sits on a long, narrow lot in Milwaukee’s Lower East side. The 3-level design makes full use of the small infill space with a full Master Suite, 3 other bedrooms, a kitchen, a living room and dining area, a garage, a terrace, and a small balcony that offers a view of the Milwaukee River. The street facing side of the building uses slats to provide privacy to residents and control the amount of light entering the building, while also giving the front of the building an contemporary façade that stands out from the antiquated homes it sits between.
