Home of the Month winner is modest addition that opens up garden views for Lake Como home Reclaimed tiles from France are among the bespoke moments that carry into new spaces of the St. Paul house.

We're excited to announce that one of our recently completed projects has achieved the highest recognition of Master Certification from Minnesota's Green Path due to its energy efficiency, high indoor air quality, water conservation, resources management, and land use. In addition, this all-electric home will be net positive with a Home Energy Rating System (RESNET HERS Index) score of -2, which means it will produce more energy than it consumes in a year. To put this in perspective, the average new home in Minnesota has a score of 50. Thanks to Hagstrom Builder for their skilled partnership on this project!
