American Society of Interior Designers Showcase Home, a benefit for a number of local charities, transforms a Wayzata home.

Showcase Home Tour May/June 2006

This year Mpls.St.Paul Magazine celebrated its tenth production of the American Society of Interior Designers Showcase Home, a benefit for a number of local charities. The public is invited to tour this private home for a month after ASID designers transform it. Click below to read about our 2006 home in Wayzata.

A Sneak Preview

The designers of the 2006 Showcase Home had an exciting and challenging task: to make the inside of the home reflect the English-cottage style of its exterior.

To create slipcovers for the side chairs, Ramsey Engler chose silk fabric because of its luminous appearance and beautiful colors.
