Front Doors - First Impressions Really Do Make A Difference

Cedar Lake Neighborhood Home/Minneapolis - BEFORE.

AFTER - New house color makes for a better blend with the limestone facade - creates a quieter, more confident presentation - emphasizes horizontal oneness.  Minimized the "accent" color orange around the front door - think lipstick - color within the lines.  Replaced wrought iron architectural details with a simple painted wood column.  Limestone window box gets a curated gallery look with spherical boxwood plantings.  Bright yellow mums help direct guests to the front door.

AFTER - Exterior Front Entry.  New full-view glass storm door takes the attention off of itself and onto the home's original interior door - the real star of the front entry experience.
