Amy Carman, principal + owner of Amy Carman Design, shares her 8 favorite spots in Wauwatosa.
Rocket Baby Bakery
Hands down, the best croissants and bakery I’ve ever had. They make savory breads and beautiful desserts that are perfect for holiday entertaining.

Stone Creek Coffee
We love their lavender latte.

Oak Leaf Trail
A wonderful, scenic trail for biking through Wauwatosa, with great spots to stop along the way to snack or picnic. The County Grounds, just east of our studio, has beautiful views for miles. Stop at Hoyt pool for a beverage and Bavarian pretzel, or spend time in the Village perusing shops or hanging out at one of the many outdoor cafes.

Le Reve
This is a lovely place for lunch or cocktails after work. Le Reve caters our Creative Lecture Series, and their French sandwiches are always a hit.

The Kohler Store
They have a beautiful showroom featuring Kohler, Kallista and Ann Sacks products. Our staff relies on their expert staff to help us specify complex plumbing projects.

Koutnik Dental
We designed their clinic, so we might be a bit biased. They have such a kind and caring staff, and a clinic that feels warm and welcoming.
