Catching Up With Josh and Elizabeth

Summary only available when permalinks are enabled.
Last month I reported that while I was in Minneapolis I had a wonderful evening with Josh and Elizabeth Hackney at their nearby home in Deephaven, right along the shores of Lake Minnetonka, a lovely scenic community with a truly laid-back atmosphere. Here are Josh and Elizabeth in front of their charming home, where they invite clients to visit their “cottage studio,” because it houses both their family and their business.


Recently I asked Josh if he would send me some photos of the living room, which serves double duty as a family living space and as a client meeting room. I wanted to publish these photos to show how attractively they are designed.



The pale color palette of the walls, draperies, and seating blends beautifully with the warm wood tones of the room’s antique furnishings to create a casually eclectic space, and to form a relaxing environment for clients and a lovely background for displaying portraiture. It’s an excellent example of how a business and a family living space can coexist without sacrificing function or style. Thanks to Josh and Elizabeth for sharing these photos!
