Project Name

Urban Contemporary

Designed for a family in Edina, this five-bedroom, five-bath home brings a clean, modern approach to a comfortable family floor plan. The exterior is intentionally simple and striking, with smooth light-colored stucco, dark trim, black-framed windows and standing-seam metal roof accents creating strong contrast and crisp architectural lines.

Large windows are a defining feature of the home. The dramatic two-story window composition at the front brings natural light deep into the interior, while generous windows across the back connect the main living spaces to the backyard. The home’s low rooflines and subtle overhangs give it a more contemporary feel without making it overly stark.

The entry is softened by thoughtful landscaping and a modern covered front porch, while the dark garage doors and front doors provide warmth and balance against the lighter exterior. At the rear, large glass doors open directly to the patio and yard, creating an easy connection for everyday family life and entertaining.

With five bedrooms and five bathrooms, the home was designed to give a busy family plenty of personal space while still prioritizing the areas where everyone comes together. It’s a modern family home that feels sophisticated but approachable—clean architectural lines, abundant natural light and a floor plan designed to be lived in every day.
