Distinctive Details
Outside, a good color scheme distinguishes your home as a cut above the rest. Inside, bold and bright colors give a room energy. Earth tones are soothing shades that lend themselves to warmth and coziness—probably a reason why they are popular in the Midwest. Today’s faux finishes wrap a space with an atmosphere of enduring heritage—perfect for the room that tends toward the traditional.
But color is not the only distinctive detail found within. Another example is your fireplace: Does it call to mind a Victorian parlor or minimalist lines of contemporary architecture?
In any case, your home’s design is refined with its distinctive details.

“Heightened design aesthetics and green building concerns are the two biggest changes in our fireplace business. For us, this is not new, but the level of awareness, concern, and sophistication has really grown on the part of our customers and manufacturers.” —Woodland Stoves & Fireplaces
TREND TALK
“Much more acceptance of color and texture, and the beauty of good wall coverings, which are a delightful and personal way to decorate. Color is a great comfort, and can transform the way we experience our home and work environment.” —William Nunn Painting

Our background…
Jeff Reiland founded Cityscape Painting in 1985 by going door to door, selling exterior paint jobs. His simple approach of offering quality workmanship at reasonable prices made Cityscape Painting grow from him and a couple of painters into one of the largest, most respected non-union painting companies in the Twin Cities. Cityscape is now co-managed by colleagues Scott Vowels and Mike Hiller with over 80 full time painters!

Many modern fireplaces are as efficient as a furnace with the added practical pleasure of allowing you to see the flames and bask in their radiant glow. As houses have become more airtight and are built to conserve energy, fireplaces have changed. Fireplaces can and should match your home’s style and conform to green building standards..
