Lake Michigan Modern

Fantasy Open House : Episode FAN-312 -- More Projects »
Arquitectonica is a world-renowned architectural firm that gained much notoriety for invigorating the Miami skyline with surreal glass towers and brightly colored buildings. In Chicago, the same architects brought their modern style and innovative vision to the exclusive and historical North Shore to create this modernist's dream come true. This award-winning home is a study in contrasts. Pink, black, green and white marble animate much of the home's exterior, making a bold statement in this rural, almost pastoral setting.

Irregularly-shaped windows playfully break up the simple lines of the one-story structure and provide for ample natural light to fill the home. The Z-shaped floor plan is untraditional but allows each room to have a lake view. The master bedroom is housed in a flip-top glass box. Adjacent to the master bedroom is a 50-foot indoor swimming pool and whirlpool. The current owners have accented the spacious interior with modern art and furnishings.

Selling price: $4,999,000
