Country Living: Little House on the Lake


Our clients’ terrific 500 square foot cottage is featured in September 2012 issue of Country Living magazine!

Bonin Architects cottage featured in Country Living September 2012

Sheri and Gerry Weber describe how their remodeled cottage went from old and outdated to clean and contemporary with a plan that included opening up the space, recycling as much material as possible, and making the most of limited storage.

Architect Jeremy Bonin presented a green design that tore down the dropped ceiling and eliminated all of the wood paneling. The Webers reaction was perfect: “Without the ceiling, it was like, “Wow!”, explains Sheri.  “We capitalized on all the extra height by putting in a sleeping loft.”  Working closely throughout the project, Bonin Architects and the Webers succeeded in making this cottage one of the nicest – and greenest – cabins on the lake!

Design of a House: Good vs. Exceptional Design


Bonin Architects believes in curtailing the negative impact of construction on the natural environment, reducing consumption of non-renewable resources, minimizing waste, and promoting a healthy living environment. 


Good design is the first step towards a sustainable future. Exceptional design of a house will:

  • Reduce the size of your new house. A thoughtful, simplified and intuitive house design results in a more efficient house plan.
  • Integrate your home with its natural surroundings, take advantage of natural features and extend your living space beyond the walls of your home.


  • Minimize operating and maintenance costs. As fuel and material prices rise, an efficient home will consume less fuel, while durable materials and high quality construction will limit maintenance costs.
  • Prove to be a wise investment. Elegant house plan designs that anticipate future changes in technology, use and lifestyle retain their value.

Bonin Architects has architects and landscape architects who deliver inspirational design solutions, quality client service, superior communication and a personalized project approach. 



The greatest opportunity for a well designed home lies in the onset of the process…call us or visit our website for more information on the process of designing a house that maximizes positive effects and reduces negative impact on your family and the environment.
