Deep River Partners received two recognitions in Milwaukee Magazine’s 2025 Home & Design Awards. In its third year, the competition is judged by a panel of regional design experts and honors architects, interior designers, landscape architects, craftspeople and builders who create the finest residential projects in the Milwaukee area.
We are honored to be among these talented designers. Each unique project is a reflection of the creativity, dedication, and passion of our entire team and the trust our clients place in us to bring their vision to life. Thank you to Milwaukee Magazine for celebrating our work, and to everyone who continues to support and inspire Deep River Partners. Your encouragement fuels everything we do.
GOLD Winner: Deck/Patio/Pool | Beach Retreat
“Designed as an extension of the clients’ primary residence, the Fox Point pool house and lakeside retreat echoes the shingle-style architecture of the main home – but embraces a more modern, relaxed interpretation, as well. The porch is outfitted with radiant heaters and a retractable screen system, making it a year-round destination, and the raised spa and full-depth pool are both equipped with automatic covers. Discreet landscape lighting directs users to a remote-start gas firepit. One judge praised the “beautiful use of space,” noting that the project resembles a hotel.”
Finalist: Condominium or Townhouse | Harbor View Lounge
“Drawing inspiration from Milwaukee’s arts and music scene, the guest retreat and entertainment lounge is an extension of the homeowners’ residence across the hall. A modern-industrial aesthetic balances bold materiality, refined comfort and hotel-inspired features, and the original timber ceiling adds warmth and texture.”
