Get matched with top designers/decorators in Milwaukee, WI

"I contacted Kristi Minser after seeing her website and reading the reviews here.  After about 60 minutes on the phone one evening, I was completely comfortable.  It was just a "click!"  
Kristi designed a 24 x 28 "shed" only 20 feet from the existing garage.  We live in a 3 story Georgian home so having something that looked like a pole barn was the furthest thing from my mind.  What we got was a very serviceable building for my husband's stuff with an upstairs for storage and future usage.  Kristi managed to work it so the single garage door is accessible from the existing driveway with only a short concrete pad.  The floor is concrete. It is 2x4 construction with ample lighting. The yellow siding with white trim matches the stucco of our home.
So that was my husband's part of the project and he is happy.  He's got big plans for retirement in that "shed." But let's see what I got!
From the garage door on the"shed", we turn right through an aluminum gate on the decorative aluminum fence.  This takes us onto the "piazza" - a 20' x 20' expanse of concrete stamped and colored with a pattern reminiscent of Paris streets. The side bordering the garage has an 18" open space and clematis vines clamber up the wall.  A winding path leads to the kitchen door past the rose bushes edged with lavender.  Directly across is a 28'x10' porch.  There's white wicker on one end, room for a table in the middle and another seating area on the other end.   The roof is supported by round pillars. We'd planned on railings but eliminated them as we wanted every square inch we could use.
We entertain endlessly on our piazza and porch.  The cool thing is the "front" of the shed with its balanced facade and double doors, faces the yard.  This makes it appear far more like a "summer kitchen" from the 1700s than a modern building.  It complements the house perfectly.
We say the shed is from Mars and the porch is from Venus.  The design is all Kristi Minser.
All that being said, every single subcontractor was easy to work with and willing to be "creative" if necessary.  The few small problems were addressed easily with a text to Kristi.  It's obvious that she trusts these people and with good reason.
PS  Little tiny misleading thing: Kristi did not do the roses and lavender or clematis.  Everything else is true!"
