Our annual Christmas tradition is back! In this special episode, Mark hands the mic to his 9-year-old daughter, May, who returns for a hilarious and heartwarming Q&A. From building timelines to bilingual clients to what happens if Mysa Hus doesn’t sell (spoiler: auction?), nothing is off-limits. It's cozy, curious, and full of dad jokes—just how we like it.

These home builder brand partnerships are trusted collaborators helping us shape the experience of living in this home.

In this live episode of The Curious Builder podcast, Mark brings together his crew from Pella Windows, Huber & Zip, and Rockwool for a fun and lively chat at Mysa Hus. They dig into what makes this build stand out—think cozy vibes, wellness-driven design, and the power of working with partners you actually like. It's all about pushing home building forward with teamwork, quality materials, and a genuine passion for creating spaces that just feel amazing.

In this Loser are Winners episode, Mark takes us through his funny and surprisingly eventful quest to get a fancy Toto bidet toilet installed at home—trust us, it’s way more complicated (and entertaining) than you’d think! He chats about family debates, high-tech bathroom features, and some wellness-focused home upgrades coming to his Mysa Hus project. If you’ve ever battled over a home improvement project with your family or just love a good laugh about everyday life, this one’s for you!

I wanted Mysa Hus to reflect my core values as a Minneapolis home builder, where I’m from, and what matters most to my clients.

At MDW, we pride ourselves on being energy-efficient home builders. This factors into every part of the process, including which brands we work with- like Huber!

Mark’s back with a solo episode that hits all the good stuff—business strategy, team communication, self-leadership, and building wealth like you build a house: with a plan. He shares a behind-the-scenes look at the live Mysa Hus event, how he’s using Fridays for deep work, and why the “losers are winners” mindset still fuels everything. A short but mighty episode to kick your end-of-year planning into gear.

We finally breaking ground on Mysa Hus and as a Minneapolis luxury home builder, I couldn’t be more excited!

That philosophy became especially true with interior renderings for one of our latest projects: Mysa Hus.

Beyond the press and media interest, what makes this scandinavian luxury home so compelling is the deeper story it tells.

In this episode of The Curious Builder, Mark Williams kicks off the new year with a sneak peek into his ambitious goal-setting strategies and exciting plans for 2025.

Plus, don’t miss the scoop on the upcoming Sauna Camp wellness retreat at Lake Minnewashta and other inspiring events.

Mysa Hus represents a shift in how we think about Hygge homes. 

In this heartfelt episode, Mark sits down with longtime friend and collaborator Melissa Oholendt of Oho Interiors. From wedding photography to running a full-service interior design firm, Melissa shares how personal experiences, creative resilience, and an obsession with “moments of delight” shaped the mission behind Oho. Expect laughter, vulnerability, and real talk about what it takes to build a brand—and a home—that changes lives.

Mysa Hus is a Scandinavian style home inspired by a lifestyle centered on family, wellness, and intentionality.
