9 michigandesign.com Front doors are vitally important; they are one of the first things people see as they enter your home and they set the tone for the experience to come. For the front door of this home, we wanted a very rich, clean look but also something that had interest; the fabulous stainless-steel hardware provided us the punch we were looking for without getting too busy.” – Ann-Marie Anton IT’S PERSONAL DESIGN Photo by Beth Singer The first thing one notices at this home is the 9-footdeep covered front porch, which was added during a recent renovation. The planters, in varying heights, are full of lush seasonal flowers and greens that bring the landscape up closer to the house. Low-slung comfy seating is inviting and evokes feelings of lingering afternoons. The Ipe wood decking was chosen for its authenticity and feels wonderful to walk on. The hanging lanterns are centered on each window and reinforce the strong linear relationships on the home’s front elevation.” – Amy Miller Weinstein AMW DESIGN STUDIO Photo by Beth Singer “ “
