Lake Effect Club was dreamed up by three friends—two from Milwaukee, one who married in—who love design, storytelling, and this awesome city in equal measure.

We’re an architectural/interior designer, a director/producer, and a former fashion designer turned all-around creative. During the pandemic, we started imagining the types of places we’d want to stay, and how we could bring that feeling to Milwaukee: something colorful, thoughtful, and full of character.

A few years later, we found the right building—a 150+ year-old property—and brought it back to life with a thoughtful update, a mix of designer finds, local touches, new pieces and a whole lot of love.

We think Milwaukee is the greatest city on earth. This is our way of sharing it.

Come join the Club.
