SUS TAINABLE DESIGN
Closing off a walkway into the dining room
created more wall space in the kitchen and
made it seem more spacious, and the larger
windows on two sides made it brighter.
With the openness, Jamie and Morgan
Molitor, co-founders of Minneapolis-based
construction2style, did not hesitate to give
their clients the darker kitchen they wanted,
including pricey countertops in matte quartz
that look texturized and feel organic.
Planning for Today and Tomorrow
Materials and style come together in a home that functions for a growing family
BY CARRIE WHITNEY
After working with construction2style on a
renovation in 2020, a couple whose family was
growing looked again to the Minneapolis-based
team for an expansion and further remodel. An
addition upstairs allowed for a new bedroom and
bathroom, while reworking the kitchen, dining,
mudroom and laundry areas downstairs made them
family functional.
From the style to the materials, co-founders
Jamie and Morgan Molitor worked to create an
earthy, organic vibe for their clients, who are both
in the medical fi eld, appreciate the outdoors and
70 JANUARY | FEBRUARY 2025
knew they wanted to remain in the home for a long
time. Intentionally choosing local, handmade and
custom materials ensured they would get a space
they wanted to keep.
" It's not just about the look but also about
function, " said Morgan, who is the fi rm's creative
director. " When you are investing, you want it to last. "
Dark & Durable Kitchen
Although the downstairs spaces received a full
refresh, including moving two doorways to improve
flow, construction2style salvaged the existing
fl ooring by patching and blending it throughout.
To bring in more natural light, larger windows
were installed, creating a more energy-effi cient
home and minimizing the use of electric lighting.
Energy-effi cient appliances were chosen, along
with a powerful ventilation hood for better air
quality. The new motion-sensor faucet boosts
hygiene, and another major upgrade was installing
a new HVAC system.
These elements all work together to create
a home that reduces energy consumption and
promotes healthy indoor living.
