Detroit Lakes City Hall- Interior Photography

Remodeled Council Chambers - Detroit Lakes City Hall, Minnesota

The City of Detroit Lakes has a new and remodeled City Hall that opened to the public in back in June of 2024. Passerby’s by have first noticed the major facelift of the exterior, then came the completion of the re-imagined interior spaces.

This project renovated and expanded the original footprint of their existing space. The biggest change for the public is the larger, and absolutely stunning, council chamber with additional break rooms for the council members.

Let’s take a little peek at its incredible transformation!

The City Offices can be found on the first floor with Public Utilities located on the second floor.

Both public entries were beautifully designed with backlit quartz desk fronts and a focus on hardworking, damage resistant materials - creating an impressive and impactful entrance for all those who visit. Large windows allow for that warming natural light to beam through.

From an interior finish perspective, the focus was on materials that spoke to the City’s ties to being a lake community in color, texture and pattern. We brought in lots of calming sand tones and blues and used lighting accents to highlight the desks in the City Hall, Public Utilities as well as the council chambers. The furniture followed suit and completed the vision through the finish choices while offering the functionality needed.
