SOPHISTICATED FARMHOUSE

THE CHALLENGE
Create a transitional family room and lounge area, with unique architectural features that harmoniously blend the two rooms, while also allowing each space to exude style and personality all its own.
THE PROJECT
Situated on a pristine twenty acres outside Buffalo, Minnesota, the client aimed to finish the interior in a sophisticated farmhouse style, aspiring for a timeless home that felt lived in from the start. The home was designed so that each room is elegant, but not too formal to feel cozy and comfortable. To achieve this goal, interior designer Brandi Hagen leveraged multiple Heat & Glo direct vent fireplaces throughout the home, heating up each space with sizzling statement walls.
A highlight of the home is the adjoined family room and bar lounge. Separated by a striking brick wall with arched double doorways, the space is anchored by the breathtaking Escape See-Through fireplace.
Selected for its expansive viewing area, sleek frame and dazzling flame, the Escape See- Through provides on-trend transparency and a robust heat output to keep this expansive< entertainment area warm in the chilly Minnesota winters. “The Escape See-Through was the exact fireplace I needed to complete the look for my client,” comments Brandi. “It looks absolutely fabulous.”
