Maison Bodega in Netherlands-based @residencenl
-
“A historic Minneapolis house has been transformed into a place where architecture, art, and culinary pleasures converge. In the heart of Minneapolis’s Loring Heights neighborhood, stands Maison Bodega, a 1920s residence designed by prominent architect Ernest Kennedy, born in Mankato in 1865 and trained in Paris,
Berlin, and Munich. His signature style—elegant, layered, and timeless—is also evident in Maison Bodega.
-
In 2017, the building was meticulously renovated by creative director and writer Liz Gardner, who, in addition to her home and workspace, also organizes cultural events.
-
Besides exhibitions, Maison Bodega also offers a shoppable assortment ranging from carefully curated
collectibles and antique pieces from the 19th century
to contemporary design.”

IN A CERTAIN LIGHT
-
There are objects that do not announce themselves.
They sit quietly, withholding something until the conditions are right—until the light shifts, or the room settles, or you return to them a second time.
This began as a way of noticing that.
-
Not collecting in the traditional sense, but gathering; pieces that seemed to change depending on where they were placed, or when they were seen. Some became sharper in the morning. Others dissolved into shadow by late afternoon. A few only held their weight at the edge of evening.

Time is the Feeling of Being Made
-
This series of monolithic, wood sculptures from Three Circle Shop, was commissioned on the reciprocal relationship the works cultivate with the natural world: their willingness to let raw material lead, to allow weathering, wear, and history shape the final outcome.
The collection is conceived through a process of attunement; an intuitive collaboration between maker, material, and the forces that have acted upon it long before it enters the studio.
The three works in the series—I, II, and III—serve as reference points for made-to-order commissions. The approach across all pieces is reductive: forms are carved through observation and in direct response to the material.

“When creative director and stylist Liz Gardner was renovating Maison Bodega — her 1920s Minneapolis home and creative studio designed by the architect Ernest Kennedy — she ignored advice to pull out the damaged original tiles in the main bathroom. Instead she commissioned artist Jonathan Janssen to work kintsugi magic on the walls. “We were committed to allowing time to be made visible,” she says. “Instead of hiding every crack or intersection of materials, we embraced them, even highlighted them, following the principle of the palimpsest.”
