All I wanted was a simple house in the country and I got so much more! Homeowner

A weekend home for the family, this casual country home rests on Lake Michigan. Contrary to the clients’ tailored contemporary city apartment, which Cannon Frank also designed, this residence is reminiscent of their vacations to the French countryside. This very traditional home features many exquisite antiques.

Cannon Frank completely designed and specified all interior and exterior elements of the house, including interior moldings, doors, windows, lighting, wall finishes, drapery, furnishings, flooring and fireplaces as well as exterior balconies, terraces, gazebos and landscaping. Additionally, Cannon Frank was responsible for all interior architecture including the intricate staircase and all millwork.
