Are you dreaming of building a new home or cabin — or remodeling one you already own?

Mark your calendar for April 17.

That's your opportunity to glean ideas from some of the Twin Cities' leading home design experts, as well as homeowners who have gone through the process.

Architects and homeowners will share the stories and strategies of their projects at "Your Home, Your Way," an evening of architecture and design presented by AIA Minnesota and the Star Tribune.

Panelists, all chosen from this year's Home of the Month-honored projects, will offer an inside look at the process of creating a dream home, followed by a Q&A session, so bring your questions.

You'll also have the opportunity to meet and chat with architects informally during the cocktail hour. Or, if you'd like a more extended conversation about your dream project, you can sign up for a 30-minute, one-on-one consultation with an AIA Minnesota residential design professional.

You'll also get the first peek at all 12 of this year's selected Home of the Month projects.

This is a prime opportunity to see some of Minnesota's most distinctive residential projects and to hear from leading architects and fellow homeowners. □
