Designed to maximize both privacy and lake views, Silver Lake North makes every square foot of its narrow site count.

The home’s stacked layout creates a dramatic arrival sequence that opens to expansive outdoor living spaces, while deep roof overhangs, wood louvers, and passive cooling strategies keep the interior comfortable year-round. Thoughtfully placed glass frames the surrounding landscape, connecting the family to the outdoors without sacrificing privacy.

Every detail was designed to balance comfort, flexibility, and a strong connection to the beauty of Silver Lake.

A few weeks ago, after returning from studying abroad in Paris, we welcomed Riley Wetzel as an architectural summer intern.

Riley’s interest in architecture first began when her passion for hands-on artistic creation collided with an affinity for the logic behind spatial puzzles.

In the fall, she’ll be heading back to Taubman College of Architecture + Urban Planning for her final year in her masters program.

When asked what she was most looking forward to at MMA, Riley said that she was excited to familiarize herself with our design process, say yes to every on-site opportunity, and push herself to ask questions and stay curious.

We’re thrilled to have Riley join the team and look forward to watching her grow!

Camp Madron balances rugged durability with warmth and connection. A metal roof and siding create a striking exterior, while natural wood finishes bring warmth and comfort to the interior.

At the heart of the home is a central gathering space that connects two private wings, creating a natural place for family and friends to come together. This open core also shapes the arrival experience, offering a direct view through the home to the landscape beyond and strengthening the connection between architecture and nature.

Last month, we said “see you later” to a beloved member of the MMA team as Kellie began her well-earned retirement.

Whether you’re a client, employee, vendor, or partner, chances are you’ve been greeted by Kellie’s warm smile at our front desk or at one of our events. She has been the welcoming face of MMA for so many, and her kindness, energy, and dedication have left a lasting impact on our team and community.

To celebrate her next chapter, we hosted a retirement party filled with games inspired by her love of running and the many roles she played around the office, from relay races and scavenger hunts with plenty of laughter along the way.
Congratulations, Kellie! Thank you for everything you’ve done for MMA. We wish you all the best in this exciting new chapter.

Little Traverse Conservancy is one of the most respected land trusts in the country, protecting 83,800+ acres and 202 miles of shoreline in northern Michigan. Their mission is to protect northern Michigan’s natural diversity and beauty by preserving significant land and scenic areas and fostering appreciation and understanding of the environment.

Last week, we joined them up north for the groundbreaking ceremony for the Malcolm Center. Growing from an existing footprint of buildings on a former golf course, The Malcolm Center will create a welcoming, community-minded space rooted in nature, bringing together staff, volunteers, board members, partners, and community members in spaces designed to support collaboration, education, and stewardship.
