The "A bit traditional" project exemplifies a harmonious blend of timeless design and modern functionality. This expansive family room remodel in Minneapolis captures the essence of traditional aesthetics while embracing an open concept layout that enhances both space and light. The project, led by designer Lisa Pope, AKBD, showcases meticulous attention to detail and an unwavering commitment to craftsmanship, resulting in a stunning environment perfect for both relaxation and entertaining. Upon entering the family room, one is immediately drawn to the medium tone wood flooring, which serves as a warm foundation for the entire space. The choice of a classic color palette, highlighted by crisp white walls, creates a bright and inviting atmosphere. The room is further enriched by the elegant bar area, which seamlessly integrates into the overall design, making it an ideal spot for hosting family gatherings or casual get-togethers with friends. A focal point of the room is the standard fireplace, adorned with beautiful tile work that reflects traditional design sensibilities. This feature not only adds warmth but also serves as a captivating visual element that anchors the space. The wall-mounted TV was thoughtfully positioned to balance modern entertainment needs with the room's classic charm, ensuring that the design remains functional without compromising style. The craftsmanship involved in this remodel is evident in every detail, from the custom cabinetry by Crystal Cabinets to the carefully curated dec. Each element was selected to complement the traditional theme while providing practical solutions for everyday living. The project, completed in 2019 with a budget ranging from $100,001 to $150,000, stands as a testament to the possibilities of traditional design in a contemporary context. The outcome is a family room that not only meets the aesthetic desires of its owners but also enhances their lifestyle, creating a timeless space that invites comfort and connection. "A bit traditional" is more than just a design; it is an embodiment of living beautifully and functionally in a cherished home.
