In the entry, an inset planter in the polished concrete floors sits beneath the open-tread staircase.

Homeowner and co-designer Christopher Hansen heads for the beach from the home’s double-height entry hallway, where a glass stairway with parota wood treads maintains sight lines.

Although the house was refurbished before North bought it in 1996, it still includes some of Breuer's original built-in furniture, including the desk in the bedroom, as well as a chair designed by the architect.

In the primary bath, which includes the home’s only indoor shower, Lachapelle used plumbing fixtures and hardware with an oil-rubbed bronze finish that relate to the touches of black in the living space. The wood dowel and leather triangle towel holders are from Schoolhouse.

The owners built the house as a place to gather with their three adult children on Loon Lake, where they had vacationed at the husband’s family home for years. The modern Adirondack chairs are by Loll Designs.

The home’s galley kitchen features cherry cabinetry and a concrete counter and backsplash—tying in with the concrete wall in the living room.

Emily designed the floating vanity and had it painted in Benjamin Moore 'Baked Terra Cotta,' with a Duravit sink top.

Emily purchased the used Brizo Odin faucet in chrome on Offer Up, and a new Brizo Odin beverage faucet to match. The sconce above the window is vintage and the counters are honed Basaltina ($2,934.38).

The only big change Plum Projects made to the home's envelope was in the loft, where they installed a gable-style dormer to better take advantage of lake views.

The office enclosure is made from white oak, with slats crafted in Plum Projects' studio workshop.

A multi-purpose office and pantry is located on the home's main level. “It’s a private space, but it feels open,” says architect Drew Daly. “Traditionally in Japan, the doors are made using rice paper, but we did an architectural play on that using a slatted wall that creates translucency."

The stairs—crafted from white oak, glass, and blackened fabricated steel—were a central element to the design of the interiors.

A focus on materiality and minimal lines takes inspired from Japanese architecture.

The skylight continues into the family room, which features a fireplace and access to a deck overlooking the front of the home.
