Rehkamp Larson Architects is responsible for the design of this stunning prairie home located just west of the Twin Cities, in Hamel, Minnesota. This newly developed residence is positioned on the site of the owner’s former childhood home. The design took inspiration from the old house, using a similar material palette, and lifestyle on the property.

The homeowners wished to take maximize views of the surrounding prairie lands while providing an abundance of space to frequently entertain their extended family members. The flat roof‘s horizontal lines directly relate to the prairie setting while the interior’s plywood paneling, exposed concrete, and white oak balance warmth with a modern edge.
