Schmatz Home
This 1,344 s/ft. home designed by the Owner and Gimme Shelter takes advantage of a spectacular site on a local lake. This plan includes a sleeping loft to free up floor space in the main floor bedroom. The siding is rough sawn white pine in a board and batten pattern.

The mosaic of cranes, forest and river was inspired by the work of Hiroshige, a 19th century Japanese woodblock artist.
Nora, the same talented creator of the light fixtures, did the mosaic work that surrounds the Japanese soaking tub in the bathroom.
