LAKE EDGE

A screen porch off the kitchen serves as a natural extension of the interior of the home, allowing the family to take full advantage of Minnesota’s fleeting summer season. A large Marvin sliding door seamlessly connects inside and out, turning the porch into the family’s outdoor living room. Given the extremely variable Minnesota climate, framing the lake views in energy efficient glass was a priority. Minnesota made Marvin windows and doors throughout the home allowed Rehkamp Larson to design a building envelope that delivers maximum amounts of glass and energy efficiency without compromising either.
