This century-old lakeside home was reimagined to create a connection to the view at every turn – and the moody meets Scandi style echoes it perfectly

Earthy neutral kitchen with large windows out to the lakeside view, a large plaster cooker hood, and blue marble countertops .

When a 100-year-old Minneapolis home just one block from Lake Minnetonka landed in the hands of Oho Interiors, its most valuable asset – the view – was barely visible from the everyday living spaces.

The ensuing redesign (the swansong at the end of a long list of renovation projects this property has seen) focused on bringing this family home back to its lake house roots. Drawing directly from the nearby water, the interiors are serene yet deeply grounding, with unexpected design moments that wow.
