Bellasera includes an outdoor kitchen, fire pit, lounge area, and covered balconies. The pool and several leading outdoor spaces were raised, requiring the builders to hoist a concrete deck and thousands of gallons of water into the air.

Muiron is one of Visbeen Architects’ most successful remodels. When the client decided to move in full-time, they hired Visbeen Architects to re-imagine the house more thoroughly. They asked for beauty, function, excellent indoor-outdoor living, and a spectacular kitchen for entertaining. And so, the firm set out to grow the home while maintaining the integrity of the midcentury aesthetic.

Sinclare was Visbeen Architects’ first entirely contemporary design. This home embraces simplicity: trimless windows, stark lines, and unhampered views. The plan’s clean design allows the location’s stunning natural features to take precedence. From the bedrooms and home office to the outdoor living spaces, balconies, and patios, Lake Michigan is the focal point. The crowning detail of this project is the edge-less swimming pool.

Springfield captures the essence of Shingle style and traditional design. Situated on the beachfront of Lake Michigan in Saugatuck, Michigan, the home’s design emphasizes indoor/outdoor living, creating a seamless transition between the interior and the breathtaking lakeside environment. A pool enhances the family-oriented layout, offering a refreshing retreat with spectacular views.

Mornington is an exquisite Victorian-style beachfront home nestled just outside the charming town of Holland, Michigan. This stunning property features a circular drive leading to a romantic front porch, setting the tone for the elegance and warmth that await within.

Perched on the shore of Lake Michigan, Kearney Hill replaced an existing cottage close to the homeowners’ hearts. The focal point is a massive, four-sided, wood-burning fireplace reminiscent of the original cottage hearth. Positioned at the center of the living space, it provides a beautiful foundation for the layout while allowing for unimpeded lake views.

This Shingle and gambrel-style home was built for two well-researched doctors with a penchant for East Coast stylings. The stunning Lake Michigan front lot constrained the footprint to a strict 3,500 sq. ft. and required a “readily moveable” structure in case of shoreline erosion. Every inch of this allotted area was used to its highest potential.

The Gables was born when a client of Visbeen Architects asked for something exceptional on a small but personally significant lakefront lot. Unique solutions were employed to achieve their objective, including a 10-foot-deep lower level. This feat of engineering required a custom pump system to keep lake water out of the house but also made room for a home theater, family rooms, extra bedrooms, and additional entertainment areas, which were finished beautifully by Vision Interiors.

The clients wanted to build a lodge on the water that would capture their love of the contemporary. They envisioned a monochromatic design with black and red-toned woods. The Visbeen Architects team worked hard to achieve the client’s vision of a stately lodge with a contemporary feel using immaculate tectonic lines. The exterior is reminiscent of Arts & Crafts Revival’s exposed wood trim. The interior embraces simplicity, natural materials, and an expansive use of glass in a contemporary style.

This home goes down in history as one of Visbeen Architects’ first transitional designs. Inspired by the homeowners’ travels, the house displays a Prairie-style element while combining Asian influence with a West Coast aesthetic. In addition, the firm updated the style linearly, adding large horizontal lines and deep overhangs. The transparent garage doors and large glass panels add a further contemporary element. These style choices have become very popular since the home was built.

This contemporary home is compact and efficient yet equipped with an incredible amount of amenities. The layout features a generous island counter and outdoor dining. Staggering views of Lake Michigan prompted outdoor living spaces on every level of this waterfront home.
