From ’90s Colonial to Family-Centered Classic: A Pewaukee Home Makeover

There’s something incredibly special about watching a house grow with a family. When this Pewaukee couple reached out to us, they were preparing for baby number three and needed their space to evolve, too.

Their home, a classic 90s colonial, had great bones and so much potential—but it was time for a refresh. Together, we reimagined it as something we now lovingly call The New Classic.

This was one of those dream projects where the collaboration felt like magic from day one. The entire family was involved. Even their young daughter had opinions on the design (and yes, she had great taste!). Our mission was to keep the charm of their original home while infusing it with warmth, function, and modern elegance that fit their lifestyle today.

The updates were intentional and detailed. Custom built-ins added beauty and storage. Fresh millwork elevated the home’s architectural feel without making it feel stuffy or unapproachable. Every room was touched by thoughtful design and by love.

From the first mood board to the final styling day, this project was about more than making a home look beautiful. It was about crafting a space this family of five could truly live in, grow in, and make memories in.
