wood is dry. You want to make sure get all the loose paint off so your newyou paint doesn't come loose.

• Paint in a temperature controlled area away from breeze that could blow dust on your project.

• Natural light is key. The better the light better your paint job. You will always , the spots you missed once you get themsee into natural light.

Starting from a van doing arts and craft shows and after moving four times in four years, c.lizzy’s Handmade Artisan Boutique has come a long way. In addition, c.lizzy’s focuses on handmade artisan jewelry, art, pottery and gifts.

We started with just arts and craft shows in a gypsy van, traveling doing shows, it had burgundy carpet and an extended top. Dad had originally bought it for Bison tailgating so it had all of the team makers stickers and it even got stolen from us once and returned… it was that bad!

After they started doing shows, there were a lot of people stopping by the pair’s homes to pick up artisan work. With that, they decided on moving from the van and opening a studio store, one where they could make artisan work and have items for purchase. Soon after the studio store opened, they packed up and moved a little further down the road to a corner store. A friend invited them to come look at a store space on Broadway and c. lizzy’s made another move. Soon after their last move, they added the space next to them that serves as their separate studio space.

Lilly Barrack is one of c. lizzy's beautiful jewelry vendors.

They have been at their current location for six years and business has been thriving. Five years ago, c. lizzy’s expanded into the wholesale market and began selling their crafts across the United States, Canada and even an account in Aruba. With the success of their accounts outside their Broadway location, the duo is now focusing on putting more emphasis on the store, Walberg’s original artwork and incorporating more original handmade pieces into the store.

In incorporating more original artwork, they turn to their experienced artist, Walberg. She is known for her work with pressed botanicals, collage layering, paints, paper and, more recently, metal collage. In her metal collage, she uses copper and steel and tries new things with them. “We work with a lot of metal and I started messing around and having fun with the patinas and the beauty of how many different changes you can make with metal, with heat or chemicals and processes,” says Walberg. Not only is Walberg an artist in the Fargo-Moorhead community, she is also known nationally. Walberg won an award at the Wells Street Art Festival in Chicago and has been accepted into the St. Paul American Craft Council Shows, or the ACC, for her beautiful metalwork.

c. lizzy's offers a wide selection of Houston Llew artwork.

c. lizzy’s has many products to offer, in a wide range of prices to suit everyone’s wants and needs. “In the store we carry artisans work that make studio work, just like us. Some of them are the ‘who’s who’ in the artisan world; we carry J&I sterling silver jewelry, Houston Lou art tiles, Watchcraft watches, Lilly Barrack rough-cut jewelry and much more…” explains Luchau. One of their mainstays are hand painted wine glasses that Cari paints, which are perfect for any gift. “We have everything from $2 spirit coins to some collages that range up to $800, we want to be able to provide a wide range, we want people to be able to have it, and enjoy handmade artisan work no matter what the price point.” All in all, c. lizzy’s is truly bringing the artisan world to Fargo.

These are some of the custom decorative tiles that are made by Canadian artists.

c. lizzy's makes a wide range of glass and metal vases.

These hand crafted metal necklaces are made by Liz W. Designs.

Architect and owner of Harmonious Architecture, Kelli Wegscheid, knows what it takes to design a beautiful lake home inside and out.

Interview Design & Living:

How did you get interested in architecture?

Kelli Wegscheid:

"My dad’s an electrician, so I was exposed to building projects at a young age.

Growing up, I loved art and math and those were really conducive to architecture.

I went to school at NDSU here in Fargo and graduated in 2002.

My parents had a cabin on Ottertail and I grew up knowing that I wanted to do custom lake homes. So when I left NDSU, I focused my job search on three areas where I knew I could do specifically residential work. I ended up in Brainerd and got to design beautiful homes and had the opportunity to move back to Perham. So we get to live on a lake and design lake homes."

firm in Brainerd so I got to work with a lot of very talented architects and project managers on the building side of things. Then I moved back to the area to a smaller firm and had kids, and for flexibility, I wanted to start my own firm."

D&L:

When you design, what is your process for inspiration?

KW: "I think the lake home style has a signature theme, not necessarily my theme. I incorporate whatever style clients come to me with into their design, which I really enjoy because it keeps everything changing and keeps every design unique. I utilize a lot of glass and the layout of the home to capture lake views, which is very different from a city home.

D&L:

How involved are you in a project?

KW: "I offer a lot of different levels of service, so that I can fit pretty much any project’s budget. Some people already have a builder in mind, so I will just do a set of builder's drawings and other people want a more full service set of drawings so then we do a lot more information up front."

I design homes in Fargo and homes in the lakes area. Designing in the city for a city lot is linear front to back, to fit on a lot. Lake homes want to be linear side to side to get as many rooms that can face the lake as possible."

D&L:

How long does a project take from start to finish?

D&L:

Where did you start out, in a firm or independent?

KW:

"It typically depends on the client. If I could do one meeting a week, we could be done in about a month. Typically it will take a couple months, depending on how often the client can meet."

KW: "I started at a firm in Fargo when I was in college and ran blueprints and did just about anything there, which was great.

Then I went to a large design build

SANFORD WOMEN’s CLINIC REVAMPS ITS MISSION 32nd Ave S.

FARGO With over two years of planning, Sanford Women’s Southpointe is finally open. We took a little tour with Director of Clinical Operations for Sanford Women’s Karey Stirling and RN Clinical Supervisor Kecia Lund through the newly remodeled spa-like facility.

“Talking about the whole women’s team and what women wanted, we did some surveys and we did some other branding types of things talking about what women wanted and what women stood for, and it was youthful, versatile, sophisticated, family oriented, confident,” said Stirling.

The team that took this information and transformed it into this beautiful Women’s Center was made up of doctors, nurses, receptionists, an art consultant and the experts at Foss Architecture and Interiors.

Privacy At the new Sanford Women’s, procedures such as weight and temperature recordings have been moved into the exam rooms. A separate area for scheduling has also been created to make patients' visits more private.

PROVIDING

COMFORT Sanford Women’s has warm, welcoming sights and sounds.

They have a cohesive color palette and have created two “pods” for new waiting areas. Sanford Women’s has also integrated soothing music throughout the wing.

Accommodating

Families

There are separate waiting areas outside of exam rooms, called The Willows. These rooms are designated for family members who want to come to the appointment but step out of the room for the exam.

CREATING INSTILLING

Tranquility Each room is decked out with a photograph of a flower that has a meaning. This photo symbolizes “playfulness, cheer and bliss.” Rooms also feature chairs that fold up onto the wall to create more space for strollers and other equipment.

We to ok a stroll through TL Stroh Architects & Interiors office with founder Terry Stroh to see what they did with the unique space.

For more information on TL Stroh Architects & Interiors, visit tlstroh.com.

The original building was built in 1929 and operated as the Fargo Paper Company. “It didn’t lo ok anything like this on the outside, just some small windows. Then in 1960 it became Dakota Flo oring; they added a flo or to the top, where you can see the brick color change,” Stroh explained. Stroh purchased the building in 2007 from the Plains Art Museum. Then they gutted, ice blasted the entire building and renovated it for their move in 2009.

“We renovated it and moved in February 2009, we gutted everything besides the structural components and removed sections of the flo or.

We bolted in this large staircase and added this slanted glass wall in the conference ro om.”

This open flo or concept on the bottom two flo ors serves as office space for the 10 TL Stroh Architects and Interiors employees and the top two flo ors are made up of 18 unique studio and one-bedro om apartments.

These homeowners love the open, active, South Fargo neighborhood that they live in.

They moved into their home in 2011 with hopes to amp-up the kitchen, dining and living room spaces with color and decor to make things “pop.” The homeowners have a beautiful wing back chair they love and would like to re-cover it and incorporate it into the design. They also need a little advice for the foyer at the entrance of their home to make it more welcoming.

Living Room Leanne:

Sylvia:

Time to get the painting clothes on and get dirty! The existing neutral palette is a little too monotonous and dull. The open layout, tall ceilings and windows make the perfect combination for splashes of vibrant colors and lively patterns. The furniture is quite classy and works well in the space. A few key pieces and colors will revive the space. Fresh new pillows on the sofa with a different texture, brighter colors and a large scale pattern will give the sofa a brand new look. Take it one step further by removing the sofa, chair and ottoman skirt to showcase the legs. Show off those stems! Another key piece of enriching will add to the continuity: fabric, fabric and MORE fabric!

From examining the current images of the home, it is clear that the taupe-tan color is overpowering and a definite pop of color is needed.

Add accessories to all spaces with color.

Organize the living room niches with tall, large scale, colorful accessories in the rectangular spaces. The top niche needs one long accessory.

Rearranging existing furniture and adding new furniture pieces will help create effective conversation areas as well as provide a space that is easier to navigate and more appealing.

Ideally, all of the living room furniture would be replaced with a new sofa, two smaller chairs instead of the large chair, and two chairs with a fun print fabric in front of the window. However, if keeping the existing furniture is desired, I would start by moving the large chair and the ottoman towards the sofa while also angling it towards the conversation area already present.

This will then move the path of travel towards the fireplace wall so as not to interfere with conversations taking place in the living room.

A small table with a lamp can then be added next to the chair. The sofa can also be moved towards the chair and angled a bit more. Replace

the ottoman which matches the large chair with an upholstered fabric ottoman having a fun print or leather top. Next, add a sofa table with vases and picture frames behind the sofa to separate the living room from the kitchen, also a small table with a lamp next to the sofa.

The end table in between the two chairs by the window should be replaced having it coordinate, not matching exactly, with the other new end tables.

To bring some color into the living room, the fireplace wall can be painted a crisp, fresh green, adding art to the right of the fireplace, and vases appropriately sized for the openings around the fireplace. Another recommendation is changing the tile around the fireplace with a coordinating tile, or the same tile that will be added to the kitchen backsplash. This will create cohesion between the spaces. Lastly, an art piece should be added in the recessed portion of the wall adjacent to the sofa, blue and green accent pillows can be incorporated.

Replace the valence with drapery side panels mounted 8” above the casing on short rods (24” wide) to compliment the ceiling height.

Dining Room Leanne: Let’s not stop with the living room. The dining room chairs and bar stools are itching for a pattern and color. This is an easy way to add personality to the space. So get your spray adhesive, staple gun and stunning fabric ready! Add a large rug under the dining room table and a fabulous centerpiece arrangement or fresh flowers to pull the rooms together. A glass tile mosaic back splash would also give the kitchen a pop of color. These colors can be coordinated with the bar stool fabric.

TIP: Pull together fabrics, patterns, backsplash and accessories/art prior to selecting the paint colors. Paint colors are endless, and by gathering these items prior to paints will help to guide the color tone through the personality and colors in these choices.

A splash of color on the walls to highlight specific areas is a definite need to break up all of the neutral tones. The dining room and living room niches are the perfect areas to add a pop of color without being too overwhelming.

TIP: Only paint the back walls and end on the inside corners. Transitioning colors on inside corners looks a lot cleaner. Take it one step further and break up the lightness by leaving the trim white and painting the doors a chocolate brown, which would balance with the darker tones in the furniture.

Sylvia: The kitchen and the dining room can also use pops of color. In the dining room, paint the recessed portion of wall with the mirror the same color green as the living room. Add a lamp and accessories to the hutch, and a taller plant to replace the current plant.

Repeat the same drapery side panels as the living room, installed on either side of the sliding door. Angling the dining table and adding an area rug with pattern and texture, table accessory and runner will create a space with warmth and interest.

In the kitchen, a tiled backsplash using a mixture of glass and stone is recommended to add color. Painting above the upper cabinets and incorporating blue and green accessories will also add to the visual interest of the space.

“ Add a large rug under the dining room table and a fabulous nt centerpiece arrangeme ll or fresh flowers to pu the rooms together.”

The Foyer

Move the plant from the foyer to the left side of the niches to cover the outlet. This will also asymmetrically balance the chair and ottoman on the opposite side.

Leanne:

Sylvia:

The foyer needs a long rug to fill the space and create an invitation in to the home. Move the plant from the foyer to the left side of the niches to cover the outlet. This will also asymmetrically balance the chair and ottoman on the opposite side. Add a large piece of art and coordinating pillows on the bench for additional color and pizzazz!

As for the foyer, adding an art arrangement above the bench and a larger area rug with a pattern will make the entry feel welcoming and bring in color. The wall across from the closet can be revitalized by adding a table or chest with a lamp, accessories and a mirror above. The plant currently in the foyer could replace the plant in the dining room and the dining room plant could be moved to the foyer.

Swapping these plants is a way to attain the goals desired without spending money!

The good news is the core items are already owned. No need to change out the furniture. Just some color, new accessories/ pillows and rugs will give this living space a whole new look.

Once these changes have been made, a home that is more welcoming, colorful, and interesting will be the result.

At a shop in South Fargo lie creative grounds for a unique artist. This talented glass blower does things that nobody else in the world can replicate.

John Offutt

D E S I G N & L I V I N G • J u ly/Au g u st 2 013

Fargo native, Jon Offutt, has made a name for himself from the magic in his fingers.

Younger Years Ever since he was young, Offutt was interested in art.

In his younger years, he did a lot of work at the Creative Arts Studio in an advanced art program in the basement of Claire Barton Elementary. “I started off on a portfolio scholarship at UND and eventually transferred to Moorhead State where I did a lot of clay. My undergrad major is in ceramics, but they had glass as an elective. It was much more suited to my personality, it’s much more intense, pretty focused. We like to say it’s like driving on ice; it’s a half hour of right decisions in a row.” He received his graduate degree from Illinois University in Carbondale. Offutt has been a glass blower in Fargo since 1996 and doesn’t see himself doing anything else with his time and talent.

Transparent Inspiration Offutt’s recent work are landscape inspired works, he named the Dakota Horizon Series. It’s focused off of living on the prairie, and this series reflects that, either with literal landscapes or more abstract examples, all of them have distinct horizon lines. “A lot of inspiration comes from the material itself and how it works, it’s unusual because it’s transparent…

I like mixing these colors up so they’re more interesting as you walk around them, it’s not the same as you walk around,” Offutt explains. In addition to creating different series, Offutt hopes to add more blacksmithing and other techniques to his work.

Here and Now Offutt lives near his shop so he can create new pieces at his convenience. His shop is called House of Mulciber. He has been doing glass blowing for over 30 years and doesn’t see an end to his successful career and lifestyle. In addition to blowing glass everyday, Offutt educates and informs various schools and does several demonstrations throughout the year. “I built a whole other studio on a trailer that I travel with in the summer, schools, one county fair a summer where I do demonstrations… Glass is unlike any other medium…” Offutt and his assistant, Dave Schutz, have been working together for seven years and have their routine down pat. The duo blows glass five days a week, from 7 a.m. until noon and occasionally on Saturdays.

The furnace stays on 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, at 2,040 degrees. This houses all of the glass that Offutt and Shutz use throughout the day.

Timeline Offutt builds a glass vessel in this second-by-second look at his intricate glass blowing process.

DELUXE PATIO The view from the rooftop of 300 Broadway is just as spectacular as the vision of architect Brian Reinarts and the team at Land Elements.

1 Recycled glass privacy wall

The clients wanted creativity. Through sketch after sketch, the idea of recycled glass privacy walls was born.

The glass originated from a place in Oklahoma that melts the glass, adds color and crushes it. Red and bronze tones compliment the LED backlit lighting within four-byfour inch steel tubing encased with a steel mesh.

IN THE SKY

Brian Reinarts led the year-long process from the conceptual design to the construction. While the intent was to demonstrate the creativity of different elements, the inspiration stems from the client, Kilbourne Group founder, Doug Burgum. His strong family history on the great plains of North Dakota is revealed through barbless, threaded wire that relates to cattle fencing to the use of recycled barn wood and other materials.

The feature elements used in the rooftop space may be a focus, but harsh North Dakota winters and unpredictable conditions instigated a strong structural plan to be put into place. A collaboration of architects and engineers worked to make the space functional for a group of two to 25 people.

“The favorite part of the project is working with the contractors and the client," Reinarts said. "There’s a lot of enjoyment of working with them and trying to achieve this project. That’s the way Land Elements approaches design as a whole process, so I think the collaboration is one of the more fun elements of designing any process.”

2 Plants

All of the plant material used is native or a native cult in the region. Little bluestem, switch grasses and black-eyed susans translate the idea of maintaining locality and ties to the Red River Valley. Clients also suggested that herbs be used as fillers with the proximity of the outdoor kitchen.

The visible entertainment features and unseen fabrication of structural elements coincide to fulfill the vision of the 300 Broadway rooftop project.

3 The Shed

Designed by architect Chris Hawley, the old barn wood structure that encloses the outdoor kitchen features a hybrid grill/outdoor kitchen. The components in the space are manufactured by Kalamazoo, an American company in Michigan. "I would say they're one of the top of the line for outdoor appliances," Reinarts said.

Dog Run

A dog run hidden behind the privacy walls and kitchen provides a separate space for the client's dog. The unique space provides convenience instead of a long trek to the ground outside.

“We achieved what we wanted to, as well as what the homeowner was looking for�

- Brian Reinarts

5 Barn Wood

"The Shed," the structure that encompasses the kitchen, is made from repurposed red barn wood from a 90-year-old Minnesota barn.

Elements of old and new are incorporated into the space.
