Steps from the shoreline of Cable Lake, this 1920s cottage needed a sensitive renovation to retain its original charm. The owner shared a Swedish heritage with architect Christine Albertsson and wanted the cabin to reflect authentic Scandinavian design — in color, proportion, and detailing, while also remaining rooted in the American Midwest. Albertsson Hansen reconstructed the cabin on a new foundation, reconfigured the floorplan, replicated the original boxcar siding, and framed the windows with custom-made white casings.
