Kenilworth Residence
The Client
He is a talented Architect and she is a worldly Professor living in Chicago. The couple share a love of modern style and mid century furniture. Embracing their style while still maintaining a functional space for their two young children was important.
Inspiration
Modern, clean lines and cool grey tones were the backdrop behind highlighting a collection of mid century furniture and walnut woodwork. I wanted to create a calm and refreshing environment for a busy family of four to reside.
Project
The scope of work included cosmetic redesign. The entire first floor, second floor bathroom and kitchen cabinets were repainted. A mid century inspired floral wallpaper was added to their entry as well as in their open dining room to add personality and pattern. Light fixtures and soft furnishing were placed throughout the first floor to coordinate with the home's existing furniture.
Clinton Residence
The Client
He is a Professor and published author and she is a corporate executive living in Chicago. They are an active family of five hoping to expand their living space as their children grow.
Inspiration
Creating a mix of midcentury and scandinavian design. Adding playful pops of color and personality to blend in with their energetic and fun family lifestyle.
Project
With a long list of tasks staying on time and budget was key. The first floor included a gut renovation. The kitchen was completely redesigned and a new mudroom was added on. Along with the first floor renovations, the scope of work included custom built in cabinets beside a fireplace in the living room and cosmetic changes to a powder room and children's bathroom.
