PORTFOLIO
-
CHAIN OF LAKES RESIDENCE
Fully custom lake house designed by Bona and Kolb and completed in summer 2009 - located on Baseline Lake, part of the Portage-Zukey chain in Pinckney, MI. -
FOUR MILE LAKE COTTAGE
Custom 'get-away' home for a great retired couple from Ann Arbor - this home sits on a beautiful site East of Chelsea and offers panoramic views of the woods and lake beyond. Large South-facing windows, radiant in-floor heat, natural materials, and a reduced footprint all help make this home both beautiful and efficient. -
CHELSEA CONTEMPORARY
Highly-detailed contemporary home beautifully sited in Chelsea. Generous use of brick, cedar, and copper give the exterior a pleasant coherency - strong horizontal lines compliment the flat site and deep overhangs shelter the expansive outdoor living spaces. -
MARSHALL LAKES CAPE
A fresh take on the classic cape cod, this new home fits comfortably into its rural subdivision. Lots of square feet on a simple foundation, the house was designed with ample space for living, relaxing, and entertaining. Outside the cedar shakes add texture to the form, while inside the classic clear finished wood cabinetry is contrasted by white-enameled wood trim. -
TANGLEWOOD RESIDENCE
Whole house renovation and addition in popular Arts and Crafts style. Careful proportioning of classic painted exterior millwork adds texture and style to a bland 1970's era suburban two-story. -
SOUTH LYON DENTAL CENTER
A new transparent entry lobby becomes the connecting link between the renovated dental office and a new orthodontics wing. The white cubes penetrating the vernacular barn forms create the contemporary feel requested by the owner. -
BAY RIDGE RESIDENCE
This project involved extensive renovations and additions to a classic 1960s home overlooking the Huron River valley. New brick additions wrap the existing house and connect a previously free-standing garage. A matching brick garden wall completes the formal composition which incorporates a manicured landscape. New interior spaces include closet and bath/shower areas, work/study spaces and a projects room. -
NEWPORT CREEK CRAFT
Attention to detail is apparent throughout this home overlooking Newport Creek in northwest Ann Arbor. The exterior granite base coursing reemerges in the detailing of the fireplace surround. Milled and kiln-dried, the wood floors were salvaged from trees removed from the site at the start of construction. -

MCE COMPANIES BUILDING

CEDAR SHAKE + BAYS
The design of this major renovation and addition to a 1950s ranch anchored cedar shake forms to a white masonry base. Bay windows, gardens contained within masonry knee walls, intimate decks, carefully scaled fencing, and splashes of bright color create a contemporary, richly scaled composition. -
