Platte Bay on Lake Michigan provides the setting for this beach house. Once a typical weekend getaway, now mid-century modern is the design theme. This beauty testifies throughout with the design elements and furniture baby boomers recognize from their childhood as contemporary architecture and design. Additional new variations on the theme, like the staircase surround of horizontal stainless steel wire, add to the clean coolness of the retro effect. Extra living space is found in the garage, with a complete kitchen on ground level and a living room and sleeping loft above.
