A great remodeler will guide you through a complex process with expertise, transparency, and professionalism. And in a world of DIY shows and social media inspiration, it can be tempting to cut corners or rush the hiring process.

Each year, the Parade of Homes inspires thousands and helps Minnesotans find a place to call home. But this beloved event is more than a home tour; it’s an opportunity to support life-changing initiatives through the Housing First Minnesota Foundation.

Older homes are desirable for their historic charm and established neighborhoods, but when it comes to amenities that promote health and overall wellbeing, your 1930s Tudor may be lacking. Through strategic remodeling, these older homes can be updated to meet contemporary wellness needs, whether it’s more windows to increase natural light, a reimagined kitchen that encourages cooking balanced meals, or smart features that make day-to-day life
a little easier.
Spring is the ideal time for a fresh start — especially when it comes to your home. Whether it’s through thoughtful decluttering or permanent design changes, transforming your home can be a powerful step toward creating a streamlined sanctuary that supports your overall health and wellbeing.
“Keeping your home clutter-free and organized creates a peaceful and functional space, reducing stress and making daily tasks easier,” says Kari Campbell, founder and principal designer at Kari Campbell Interiors. “Plus, it saves time when you know exactly where to find what you need. It’s all about creating a space that feels good to live in.”
Here, Twin Cities home professionals offer their tips to transform your space — and your mind.

Remodeling your home is an exciting journey, but choosing the right remodeler can make all the difference between a dream realized and a project fraught with headaches. With countless remodeling professionals to choose from in Minnesota, it’s important to find
a partner who aligns with your vision, timeline, and budget.
When planning a remodel, most jump to flooring, cabinetry, or furniture to achieve a dramatic transformation. However, there are other design elements that can make a major impact in how you reimagine and, ultimately, live in your space: windows and doors. They do more than let in light and provide protection — they frame your view, amplify your home’s style, and boost energy efficiency. Here are a few things to consider when it comes to windows and doors — brought to you by Marvin.
